This is the 'Trail' template. This template creates the 'sidebar' with info about each trail like the state, nearest city, coordinates of the tail head. If not used, entries marked "Optional" should be left blank (no '*') in the usage to avoid erroneous data connections.

It should be called in the following format:

{{Infobox Trail
 | Trail Number = Optional - Typically a Forest Service Trail #
 | Park = Optional - should be name of a park without [[ ]] that has a page
 | Land Owner = Optional - Expected to typically be name of city, state, or national forest (e.g. Kingsport, Cherokee National Forest, or Tennessee)
 | Wilderness Area = Optional - Name of wilderness area if it applies
 | City = Nearest city
 | State = State located in
 | Marking = Trail marking - only color if standard rectangle, otherwise include shape
 | Trail Use = Things you can do on the trail (ATV, dog free, horse, camp, etc.) 
 | Trail Features = Things you get to see (Waterfalls, open views, caves, rivers, etc.)
 | Difficulty Rating = Easy / Medium / Hard
 | Hike Time = Default Hours, but accepts Min
 | Round Trip Distance = Typical/shortest trip distance to get from parking to do the trail and back (Default Miles, but accepts Ft, Meters, and km)
 | Trail Distance = The strict length of the trail ignoring any repeated sections for obsessive unique trail counters (Default Miles, but accepts Ft, Meters, and km)
 | Trail Type = Loop / In-and-Out / Segment (Choose one of the three)
 | Elevation Gain = Total climbing distance for described hike direction (Default Feet but accepts Yards, Meters, km)
 | Elevation Loss = Total descending distance for described hike direction (Default Feet but accepts Yards, Meters, km)
 | Low Point = Optional - As it is, the lowest elevation of the trail (Default Feet but accepts Yards, Meters, km)
 | Elevation Change = Optional - Simple mathematical difference between Low point and High point (Default Feet but accepts Yards, Meters, km)
 | High Point = Default Feet but accepts Yards, Meters, km
 | Parking location = Lat,Lon format, long term replacing Latitude and Longitude above (sets IB map pin)
 | Trailhead location = Optional if not within visual distance of parking location
