Back in 2011, the Museum received funding from the Quimby Family Foundation to set up the site http://www.athikerpictures.org/ It is a searchable database of all the thru-hiker photos taken at ATC headquarters at Harpers Ferry, WV. The database has not been updated with new hiker photos since 2008.
We would like to update the database with photos since 2008. The site was written using a program called Ruby on Rails. We would also like to upgrade the site to the current version of RoR.
Does this sound like a project you would be interested in tackling? If so, contact us at [email protected]
By the way, we have a complete archive of hiker photos available to search and view on a computer at the A.T. Museum.
