Hi Håvard,

I found the raster calculator and read the online manual for it, however am 
still a bit lost.  I was also playing with the Style properties and color bands 
last night to try to accomplish this.  I was unable to get a single binary 
image with the single color (red in this case).  I think the understand the 
r.thin suggestion and that it will thin the single color thick lines for 
vectorization.  Appreciate if you can expand on obtaining a binary skeleton of 
the one color of the trails.

Thanks again,
Nick
