Just to be clear, I'm talking about hiking trails. Forest roads in the area have already been uploaded with the TIGER import (at least the ones I know of). On the hiking trails themselves, labeling is very inconsistent. Typically they're labeled with common names (e.g.. Three Rivers Trail No. 44), but occasionally they're labeled with a 'T' prefix (e.g. T5004). Most forest service maps just list the number, e.g. 44, or 5004. -- Samat K Jain <http://samat.org/> | GPG: 0x4A456FBA That which does not kill you merely postpones the inevitable. -- None (673)
