Version 1.4.0 has been released to remove the giftery / list it integration of the addon now that service has been discontinued. No upgrade is needed though there have been a few other bug changes since 1.3.5.
Finding Feedback Can be Like a Needle in a Haystack
The more your forum grows, the more of a challenge it becomes to sort through the history and get the full story.
Product Review Forums Brings Structure to the Chaos
As a full-featured product management addon, PRF sits on top of your forum allowing you to create defined products which, unlike individual posts, stay relevant over time. Each comment, review and even product updates filter back into this one spot allowing for a quick and comprehensive overview while the individual discussions rage on as always.
Here's just a few of the many features you'll find in PRF:
Bring structure to products with established pages & reviews
Reduce the number of repetitive posts from members looking up the same info
Increase your traffic with content-rich, seo friendly, product listings
Drive revenue by adding your own affiliate links to product listings
Increase the activity stream's value with review integration
Engage visitors with integrated wishlists from Giftery.me
===========================
Installation is not upload & go... individualized settings are required. Read the install file.
Enabling Product Forums: To show product details and ratings, each product-forum must be enabled in the forum manager.
Adding Products: You may upload products one at a time through the admin [includes an image uploader using GD] or you can bulk import through XML. You can also enable users to add moderated products through a global and usergroup option.
Product Review Index: To access your forum's product overview go to www.yoursite.com/productforums.php - You may want to add a link to this to your navbar or as a tab.
Customization: This addon is made to be customized. To change the color schema see clientscript/vbulletin_css or dive right on in to the templates and phrases.
Powered by Giftery.me: This mod is maintained includes two integrations you should know about. Both can be controlled through the mod options.
Ted S, I could kiss you for coming up with this! Eagerly awaiting custom ratings categories and then we'll deploy this on one of my "big boards". We need more of what GARS used to offer, with that level of flexibility, given that our users are mostly rating businesses, not products.
Heck, I'll PayPal you $20 right now if you can get that functionality added in the next couple of weeks.

The upgrade is certainly on my to do list but we just launched our main site and that's the focus right now. Hopefully we'll have time to circle back soon.
As for the donation, thanks but I assure you, I don't release mods for the profit
could this be used to rate trails, hikes, rock climbs, etc?
Absolutely. You could extend it to bring in fields like difficulty, time, grade, etc to make it more rich but even out of the box you've got something which can easily rate a climb or other outdoor activity.
