Bob Burd is one of the most prolific peakbaggers in U.S. He has a tremendous number of well-documented trip reports of his hikes in the western U.S. which include photos & annotated maps on his website. Since I like to peruse hikes based on location, I did a little scripting and made Google Map & Earth kml views of all the peaks he has visited. When you click on the peak, the name with a link to Bob's trip report will show up. There is a individual page for both the Map and Earth views, updated last on 6/5/2013. This was pretty low-effort without much refinement, so feel free to provide feedback.

Obviously, he's covered a great amount of the peaks in southern Cal, including the Big 3 ranges.

looks like the work of a crazed cloner!
And he did all that one step/word at a time.
