Build something like https://opentopomap.org but:

  • Bigger fonts! ideally, retina-aware (so, vector map?)
  • more precise contour lines
  • cleaner style, compatible with the slope overlay (eg close to swisstopo) (see OTM style
    • less contour lines at most zoom levels
    • lighter shading
    • compatible pattern for scree
    • highlight huts like maps.refuges.info or Bugianen
  • better loading time ;-)
