Mentee Resources

In no particular order, some important procedures and links.

For Everyone
  • If you are so inclined, and if you are social media savvy, use the hashtag #PorterMountainMentorship as a little shout-out.
  • Importance of Checklists, and a tutorial on writing your own checklists.
For Skiers
  • Sign up for Avanet. And download the phone app. This is all brand new, but it may replace all of the below. 
  • Sharing a route plan with me from Hillmap.com 
    • Draw the route on the site, using a combination of the "Terrain", "Caltopo", and "Satellite" view layers. You can add and delete points, adjust the route, and note mileages, all from the interface there.
    • Once you have outlined a proposed route, whether it is your preferred route, alternative, or exit plan, go to the little wrench, and pick "link to". This will give you a link to send me with your route plan. Cut and paste that into an email.
  • Sharing a track from your day using GaiaGPS
    • Record your day. Or at least the relevant parts of your day, on the app. It's pretty intuitive. 
    • Once you "finish track", and it is then saved in your list of tracks (visible under the main menu), click "share" from that track's menu and email the link to me.
  • Sample route plan spreadsheet
