Who Climbed What? Trying to Map First Ascents and Capture a Piece of Climbing History

So a few months ago I was reading Beyond The Vertical and wanted a companion map of his first ascents. As time went on I had similar curiosities about Henry Barber and a few other climbers (many of them New England centric). So I started to collect some data laying around about first ascent information here and in guidebooks and collecting it so I could map it. The result is Who Climbed What I am walling to go into some more technical details, but I am mostly excited for feedback and possibly some suggestions to help improve the quality of the data, the features, etc.

Eventually I want to add climber profiles and information/stats (years active and the like), as well as, most important routes various climbers did (either personally or otherwise). I am also interested in hearing about other local legends from outside of New England I should include! Thank you all for your feedback!

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
