Description
Verified mainly on Safari, although users have also cited mobile Chrome as an issue.
StoryMaps with more than about 20 slides will crash at some point while navigating the map.
With as few as 15 slides, it seems that one can navigate through all the slides, but that a crash will occur when clicking the return home arrow.
StoryMaps with as many as 12 slides were successfully verified without incident.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the crash in mobile Safari and Chrome with StoryMaps containing more than 20 slides, then test the return-home arrow with about 15 slides. Trace the navigation path involved and verify that larger maps and the return-home action no longer crash while smaller maps continue to work.
