Social Media has killed a lot of forums. It is so much easier to share photos. My big forum Eastern Washington Adventures had loss all it's sponsors since most people left for facebook. We had to shut it down because of the server cost. We tried the facebook thing for years until they started removing our post without reason. We started a new forum at
https://GoPlayWA.com for anyone wanting to find info on events or photos of places we have gone. We also have a new Social Media Group at
https://gab.com/groups/39999. Both pages are free to join.
See you on the trail, Clay
