[edit] Merging with Hiking

I think that merging is not a good idea. Trail is obviously about all sorts of different trails, including cross-country ski trails and vehicular trails. Hiking trails are just a subset. I think they should remain distinct articles. -- hike395 05:25, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Agreed. Also, even if there were none of these other kinds of trails, it would make sense to have two separate articles, just as we have separate articles on skis and skiing. --Smack (talk) 17:56, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] External links

The links being posted at Hiking tend to overlap with the links here. (Also, many of the links have questionable merit, but that's a different story entirely.) We should probably figure out what topics belong here, what topics belong there, and what kinds of sites should not be linked to at all. --Smack (talk) 21:18, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Trail administration

I think that we can write quite a bit about trail ownership, rights of way, easements and such. --Smack (talk) 23:42, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
