Planning my annual section hike in a couple of weeks (James River to Rockfish Gap this year), so I'm necro-mining Whiteblaze. I don't have a smartphone or other portable device, so no Guthooks or FarOut, and still use AT paper maps. Each year, I go through Whiteblaze looking for info, especially about good campsites, and mark the maps accordingly. This year I went 12 or 13 pages back on the "Camping" subforum, to 2004, and picked up a lot of good info. There was a lot of user traffic on Whiteblaze in 2004. It seemed very active until around 2016 or 2018, then began tapering noticeably, presumably as people moved on to other social media sites. One day they'll stop printing paper maps becasue there will be no demand. That will be a sad day, though old maps (with eroding reliability as the trail changes) will still be available for years thereafter.
