I don't understand the point of this article.

It's to generate clicks, because people will wonder if their favorite hike is on the list.

Just like when you see a magazine wants to increase readership or clicks from a particular region, it may publish a top ten list specific to that region.

It's the hiking equivalent of "See girls looking for love in localhost!"

To be fair, the love of my life is now at 127.0.0.1.
