How to contribute

Before creating a route

• Search the immediate area and nearby routes to avoid duplicates.
• Confirm that sharing the location is compatible with local access rules and climbing ethics.
• Use your own capture or material you are authorised to submit.
• Record uncertainty honestly instead of filling unknown fields with guesses.

Choose the smallest useful contribution

You do not need to finish an entire route page alone. A precise access correction or verified route line can be more valuable than a large incomplete upload.

When a route already exists, add to that record. Betabace keeps your individual contribution visible within the shared history.

After submission

• Automated checks look for missing files, impossible coordinates and obvious duplicates.
• Community or local review may be required before sensitive or uncertain information is public.
• Accepted contributions receive permanent provenance even when later versions replace what is currently displayed.
