WTA Enhancer Extension

Tired of opening another browser tab to find out how long it would take you to get to the trailhead? Have difficulty finding the weather forecast for a hike? WTA Enhancer makes this information easy to find without ever leaving wta.org.

* Displays how long it would take to drive to the trailhead
* Links to Google Maps directions to the trailhead from your home or preferred landmark
* Links to hike descriptions directly from the Trip Reports page
* Links to weather information for the trail provided by WeatherUnderground.com
* Computes average gain/mile
* Displays the number of trip reports available for a hike
* Displays the date of the last trip report

I don't do anything sketchy with the home address you provide but feel free to use any location you want; it doesn't need to be your actual address.
