    Can you please explain the points and how they are earned?

    I logged hikes. Some have a comment that I “earned” points. Or I have points but no comment and my Sitton hike does not have any points at all.

    I also have earned a Spring Hiker badge, but no points. Should I have earned any points for that?

    Hi Sara!

    Points are something we’re not really using at the moment. My thought was that you would earn points for actions on the website like logging a hike, or even liking and commenting on other people’s hikes.

    But it’s like a cake that’s been mixed, but not baked yet. The ingredients are all there, but the cake doesn’t shine until it’s finished.

    Each peak should award 10 points for logging. Sutton didn’t, but not because of anything you did wrong. I simply didn’t set it up correctly. The “season” badges could award points, but they don’t currently.

    Ultimately, points could be an indication of experience and participation on Social Hikers — the more points, the more experience and activity. What you can DO with those points is TBD.
