[misplaced] Don't show trails with sac_scale=demanding_alpine_hiking and harder #18

Hey,

This bug totally doesn't belong here. It belongs in wherever the bugs for the strava mobile clients go. I couldn't find where that was, so hopefully this can get put there.

I just got an email from Search and Rescue folk near Vancouver, BC and they've been having problems with people following a path on strava ("presumably they assumed that it's a running trail"). The path was marked with sac_scale=demanding_mountain_hiking which is quite definitely not a running trail.

Seeing as Strava is marketed as a running app, it's probably best to either not show these paths, or show them with some sort of climbing icon.

Here's a picture as an example, the path in question is the route up Harvey's North Ramp.

Also I tried to post this in the forums but was unable to log in (some javascript error about no window.Zendesk)
