At any time, with a press of the button, you can get a distance and altitude profile of the route or a detailed description of the route.

Furcadia, Twinks are powergamers, and god-modders who do not know how to RP. Often a word thrown around too often, and used quite too much. Twink kills everyone in the room without even thinking about it, but then cries for a flower he accidentally stepped on. click to vote When a higher level character buys high end gear for a low level character he created. I heard Warrior VonWarriorstein created a shaman twink with some uber gear.
