It's perfectly acceptable to put a trail number in 'ref' on a route
relation.  And while the presets only offer 'lwn' 'rwn', 'nwn', 'iwn', I'd
say that in North American practice, putting in the name of the authority
that assigned the 'ref' would be appropriate in 'network=*', particularly
in regions where multiple networks may be overlaid.

What is a 'Pack Trail'? One graded for livestock, so that a pack mule
(horse, llama, etc.) can be brought along?  Would 'horse=yes' (or maybe
some other value if pack animals are OK but riding animals is forbidden)
cover it? In which case, also consider making the way a bridleway and and
having a route=horse as well as a route=hiking relation.

[Talk-us] Reference numbers to use for hiking trail route relations

2020-10-11 Thread Mark Brown
Greetings folks,

Just mapping some of the trails in the Cabinet Mountains in the Idaho 
panhandle, from the US Topo Maps. Noticed that the trails have numbers. What 
should I put in the "ref" for the route relation? Also, some of the trails are 
marked as Pack Trails but there is no documented tag in the wiki. Would adding 
"pack=yes" be acceptable?

Would be grateful for some guidance.
