  How do I open/view the Route Profile Tool?

  I've been sent a link to a route showing the profile tool and it looks great: https://www.plotaroute.com/routeprofile/367939 I would now like to look at detailed route profiles for my own routes, but I just can't work out how to get to the page. I spent about twenty minutes trying to work this out and have got nowhere.

  I found this help link: https://www.plotaroute.com/tip/27/how-to-download-a-route-s-elevation-profile However, the EXPLORE HILLS IN MORE DETAIL button doesn't seem to exist. I also can't find the "button above the map's elevation profile." that it mentions as the second method.

  I also found a forum post announcing the tool, but it just says to click the links to access it, but after scouring every inch of the webpage, I can't find any links.

  Help!

  Hi Rob,

  There are various ways to get to the Route Profile page. Try any of the following:

  1. From the "View Route" page - click the "Explore Hills in More Detail" button above the elevation chart (about half way down the page). You can select routes from your "My Routes" page to view them.
     
     
  2. From your "personal Home Page" - click the "Profile" link in the "My Routes" or Recent Routes" tabs.
     
     
  3. From your "My Routes" page - click the "Ascent" column entry.
     
     
  4. From the View Route page - select "HILLS" from the MENU above the map and then click the "More Detailed Profile" button above the elevation profile shown below the map.
