Points grading algorithm issue #47

Open marian-gheorghe opened 5 years ago

marian-gheorghe commented 5 years ago

The points grading algorithm seems to give too much weight to the distance relative to elevation gain Check these 2 routes: Rotwand: https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/routes_list/476/ Südliche Riffelspitze: https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/routes_list/184/ They are rated almost the same, although Südliche Riffelspitze has almost twice the elvation gain but only 3 km short of the Rotwand route. The Riffelspitze route is significantly more difficult than Rotwand.

Good catch, will have a look.
