Sherpa Hiking and Camping Guide Sherpa, an online hiking and camping guide created for a high-speed Internet service, provided a unique opportunity to push the envelope in technology and design.
	Our client's goal was to offer its subscribers information on hiking, camping and adventure without intimidation. The result is a site that both experienced and novice visitors can find useful. Using Macromedia Flash, we created a splash page to highlight the message our client wished to convey to Sherpa visitors. The introductory movie can be bypassed at the click of a button, and automatically places visitors on the feature's main page upon completion. A Flash-enhanced version of the main page is automatically displayed if a visitor has installed the Flash plug-in. An alternative standard HTML version of the page was created for visitors who have not installed the plug-in. Throughout the Sherpa site, visitors can research hiking and camping gear, obtain advice for beginners, and search for parks and camp locations across the country.
