Hello,
We met with our local EMS to discuss emergency access points along some of our trails. In particular, we have a single track trail that periodically intersects with an access road and we would like to designate different segments to help trail users communicate where they are along a roughly 3.3 mile trail in case of emergency.
We had discussed potentially marking segments of the trail with different colors are different symbols so trail users can say, "there are blue trail blazes" or "there is this shape/animal painted on the trees." I am curious if anyone has tried something similar and what they have had success with.
Thanks,
Jamie
