Hi hikers,
I recently wrote an AT program for a class in my graduate program. It is a command line (DOS) program that finds an elevation for any spot on the trail. Also, if you enter a starting point and an ending point it will tell you the distance to be traveled, the amount of time it will take, the maximum and minimum elevations reached, the overall elevation gain/loss, the amount of calories to be burned, and the amount of food required. It is not a comprehensive program by far, but hopefully some of you will find it useful. It is free for all and available at the following link:

Let me know what you all think.
