Thanks, you're dead-on with all of your points.

You're surrounded by scenic, interesting, and happening places and don't know it. Wanderous helps you discover and explore these places by guiding you to them and showing you what's there.

The target user is travelers and locals alike. I think I'd prefer to appeal to local (read: everyday) users over travelers. I'll have to think about this one.

Which is better for the landing page: this colorful screen shot that makes user's ask.. what're all those goodies? vs. a detailed screenshot showing a New Expedition being created? I went with this in hopes of it being more alluring and visually appealing. The Expedition creation screen looks a bit boring and less appealing but would help convey the concept.
