In order to test the EveryTrail iPhone app, I went for a short walk in the communities of Milway Meadows and Hollin Hills (located in Fairfax County, VA). Along the way, I took a few photographs using my iPhone 3G's built-in camera. The photos were geotagged automatically by the iPhone's GPS receiver. An interactive map and slideshow of my trip is shown below. (Adobe Flash Player required.)
