I tried making a pokey stop on a mountain top and a lean too which isn’t dangerous but apparently it is but so why don’t you people stop putting pokey stops up on mountain tops where children can fall off and die ---

Are you able to share what you submitted and the reject reasons you got? I’ve seen plenty of cairns up mountains and submitted plenty of trig points that are high up too. ---

Hello and welcome @magnusfrauter Not everyone needs to be able to get to every wayspot. I’m tagging my fellow ambassador @Trollfarer As they are very familiar with mountain top submissions. ---

What does it take to get more pokestops I have submitted several and only one was accepted The only option we have for a picture is one sign. We don’t have buildings, landmarks We don’t have any of that. We live out in the country by a public lake and public river. Camping fishing swimming is allowed but only one sign. Maybe I should take a pic of the public bathrooms would that get us a stop! We have one gym one PokéStop we can’t hardly do anything out here. There are kids that live out here and kids that come camping with their families , if you can accept a PokéStop on the side of a mountain why can’t you accept more out in the country ---

You can read about all of that on the Wayfarer page in the Criteria section, and the Help section has a lot of useful information as well. Unfortunately, a lot of places out “in the country” don’t have a lot of area that isn’t ineligible. There is a forum post that might be helpful to find things that are eligible here: > [@Tips for Rural Nominators](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/tips-for-rural-nominators/137/1): > > Tips for Rural Nominators: Look for things that meet the guidelines that tend to be in rural areas: Churches Fraternal orders and veteran outposts Eligible points of interest AT churches, veterans posts, etc. Look for picnic shelters, ball fields, prayer gardens, Little Free Libraries, and religious sculptures and shrines.
