A comment on Anyone willing to pay for a Google Streets version of National Park Trails?.

Kickstarter bro, this is what it was made for. Post on hiking forums and nature online communities to get buzz and attention.

Sounds definitely like something I would be really interested in. If there was a way that anyone with moderate funds could build a device or method to do the Street View job while hiking, and it was propagated enough to have a community like the global GeoCaching community, that could be one vector to try out.

Maybe post on Reddit's http://www.reddit.com/r/SomebodyMakeThis as well?
