On the "Committee Roster" page for Seattle (CommitteeList.cfm?branch=SEA) the link at the top for "Seattle Branch website" is incorrect...it should point to "mountaineers.org/seattle".

Whitewater kayaking. The one epic sport that the Mountaineers don't yet have. Some of the WORLD'S best rivers are super close to us!

The text "Qualified Youth Leader" appears in trip listings and also Roster Detail pages. That wording is ambiguous, and it makes it sound like the *leader* is a youth. People have told me they haven't signed up for trips because they thought the leader was young.
It should probably be rephrased, here are a couple ideas...
"Qualified to lead youth"
"Qualified leader for youth"

After I chose "set as start page" then clicked on "My Homepage" (in >My Homepage > Community Homepage > View News) the top banner (Get Outside & Explore, Learn | Conserve | Youth & Family | Community | etc.) now overlays the My Community News and My Communities frames so I can't see part either list.

Clicking any of the "Mark All Read" buttons in the e-Communities section takes the user to a blank page

LOW-INCOME FAMILIES CAN NOT AFFORD YOUR HIGH MEMBERSHIP FEES.

IT IS A SHAME YOU CANNOT HAVE A SLIDING SCALE.

ANYONE WHO BELONGS TO THIS CLUB IS RUDE AND MEAN AND FULL OF THEMSELVES JUST BECAUSE THEY CAN AFFORD TO BELONG. I HAVE NEVER MET SUCH A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ARE SO FULL OF THEMSELVES.

YOU SHOULD TRY LETTING IN THE OTHER CLASSES AND MINORITIES.

CELEBRATE SOME FINANCIAL DIVERSITY AND MAYBE THE RICH STUCK UP PEOPLE WILL LEAVE.

ONLY RICH WHITE REPUBLICANS CAN BE A MOUNTAINEER.

THAT IS SAD.

Why bother to vote in the board of trustees election? There are four candidates for four slots. That's not an election, that's a rubber stamp for a slate pre-selected by the board. This kind of "election" doesn't encourage participation by the membership - quite the opposite. There should be a real choice, not a fixed slate.

I often don't know the gender of people on my trips, especially if they are from other countries. This is important and useful when I'm looking for someone at a P&R or when referring to someone in an email (he or she?).

It is becoming frustrating that a majority of the available weekend hikes are only for people involved in the wilderness training or conditioning series courses. It appears that the majority of challenging hikes are for courses. Other members not in these courses have also paid to participate in activities and it would be nice if there were more hikes available for everyone.

I'm getting "The Page Not Found" error when trying to vote for the 2012 Mountaineers Photo Contest.

Make registering some one for an activity simpler. For a leader to register some one for an activity there was no less then 7 clicks to get one person registered. More then a little excessive.

Spent way too much time looking for it with no luck! I found the FAQ on the "difficulty" ratings for hikes/backpacks, but I thought there also used to be something that roughly defined what each "pace" meant. This info might be helpful for new members who aren't quite sure if they'd be able to keep up!

FIx it finally

Have you tried to post a trip? round and round you go with no end and no posting...I quit. Get a CMS that works. even the email post does not work

As a basic climbing student I'm trying to regularly check for new climbs, and the website is not helping me at all.

Currently there's no easy way to see recently added events. What would help is being able to create RSS feed from search results (like it's done on Craigslist, for example). This will automatically implement "event alerts", which other people requested, since there are many online services that can send RSS updates to e-mail. Or, at least you can add sorting search results by date added.

Other useful feature is sorting search results by registration start date.

Scheduling a trip is just as poor as is it has always been. I want to list a kayak trip to golden gardens and cannot do it, Fix it. I go round and round. I quit and you lost another leader. You guys will never get it.
