Hi Michael, did you
consider to ad seasonel and winter – yes as keys and values in the advanced
options. The
track will be there only in wintertime’s and then even not at the exact same
place ! The track would shift without any references if itsnt following a usual
track or path. Consider to tag the area
where the track(s) are prepared as sports – Nordic.
