Show HN: F.I.S.H. – Mashup of data sources to help explore state of Washington
foxtrotindiasierrahotel.comF.I.S.H. is a mashup of several data sources to help me explore my adopted state of Washington.
I'm using data provided by the United States Geological Survey, TrailAPI.com, The Beer Mapping Project, ReserveAmerica, Mapbox and OpenStreetMap to build an application to map a few of my favorite things: fishing, camping, hiking, mountain biking, and beer.
Your feedback and wisdom is appreciated,

Hey Joe, Great job compiling the data.
I noticed the lack of "Distance From ..." on the Campgrounds/Hiking list in a given state. As a user I'd love to find a good camping spot that's nearest to my city.
There is an issue with escape characters in the content (eg: ' is represented as ')
UI suggestion: Instead of showing a list of things, just put them on the map
> Instead of
As well as
I can copy paste the list but I can't copy paste the map. For anybody who isn't focused on their immediate personal life a list is often more useful.
Good suggestion. It's on my TODO list.
I 2nd this suggestion. I want to browse by map. Even a way to draw a box around the map and then have the list filtered by lat/long would be a huge improvement IMO.
Great work thou! Thanks!
love the idea of building a geobox for filtering. I'll look into it. thanks for the feedback.
Nice work! I thought I had a pretty good handle on the local beer in Kentucky, but apparently I've missed a few. Any chance you'd build an API around this?
Thanks @ccallebs. re: API, The Beer Mapping Project has you covered: https://beermapping.com
Cool.
