GraphMyHike.com captures the achievement of your hike in a shareable vignette showing elevation profile, speed, and hiking-related statistics. All you need is a standard GPX track of your hike.
History
GraphMyHike.com was born of the confluence of three sentiments in its author: a desire to dabble in HTML5, a renewed interest in hiking and GPS tracks stemming from a trip to Rocky Mountain National Park, and longstanding dissatisfaction with existing elevation profile tools, which generally fail to account for rest, include too much noise in the speed graph, and overcount elevation gain.
