Steps to creating a new trail (or filling out a referenced one that has no page)

  • See if the trail name already exists, search the site, browse the map, or browse the trail list
    • If you found it at one of those locations but the link is red or when you click the link, it says no page resides there then click 'Create' and start adding
    • If the trail cannot be found at either location then simply 'browse' to it by going to the address bar and substituting the current page name with the trail name page
    • POLICY: This wiki will not list trails on private land unless the owner has given global permission for all groups to use. Trail listing must have specific contact information, including person's name and telephone number.
  • For the trail page go to Form:Trail, enter a trail name, then start editing
