Hi all,

Someone on our local list is asking how we can tag such "trail blaze"
we meet in the countryside to mark a hiking route. Here is a picture
of two fixed on a fallen tree:

He is asking because a local community is maintaining such marks and
would like to locate them in OSM in addition to the route itself.
Our current proposal is to use a node tagged with:
tourism=information
information=trail_blaze
hiking=yes
operator=
support=tree|pole|rock
description=

Any comments about this ?
