Maintaining Best Hikes BC requires a lot of time. From writing each post, editing all the photos and general website design and maintenance, I spend many, many hours keeping this site running every year. At the time of writing this page there are over 225 individual hikes, plus a number of other featured posts on this website. Each hike requires at least 2 – 3 hours of work (on top of going on the hike itself), from editing the photos, writing the content and designing/editing the post. Over the course of this websites life I have spent many, many hundreds of hours in keeping it going.
As well as time there are is a cost element to running a website like this, both directly and indirectly. The direct costs of website hosting, domain names and plugins add up each year, then there are the indirect costs of photo editing software, subscriptions, hardware (laptops, cameras etc.), plus the costs of hiking in general (gas, clothing, gear etc.).
If you have found this website to be a useful resource, please take a moment to consider making a donation that will help to cover the costs of running a page like this, no matter how big or small.
Thanks! See you on the trails.
