Hi Mike,<div><br></div><div>What you are seeing in the right pain are lists of .gpx files for rides that have been uploaded for that area. If an area doesn't contain any uploaded .gpx files then nothing appears in the right pane. </div>
<div><br></div><div>This is a work in progress, and has not yet been fully implemented. We are in the process of incorporating user accounts that will enable anyone to upload .gpx files of hikes, bicycle rides, motorcycle rides, etc. For now we are the only ones who can upload this kind of content.</div>
<div><br></div><div>RE tagging trails...the .gpx files are totally separate from the map data. For trails to appear, yes that OSM data has to be tagged with a minimum of highway=path or highway=track to appear. </div><div>

<br></div><div>Nice that your documentation encourages your users to contribute to OSM.</div><div><br></div>
<div>I clicked on your link for your website. Initially the map was centered over Salida, CO. There was a nice list of trails on the right margin that one could click on, thus highlighting the trail on the map. Once one pans away from Salida, this functionality seems not to be in place. Am I doing something wrong? Do the trails in my area have to be tagged in a special way to enable the full functionality of JuicyTrails?</div>

<div><br></div><div>If people like it, it would be nice to get some good reviews going...</div><div><br></div><div>The trail map features all kinds of dirt trails (hiking, horse, bicycle, motorcycle, ATV, and 4WD) as well as paved footways and cycleways, all based on OSM data. I started this project basically to fulfill my own trail navigation needs. I have done quite a bit of OSM trail mapping myself, but even I was shocked how many trails appeared when we turned the rendering lights on in the USA. Denver, Boston, and California have the most mapped trails. I have mapped quite a bit in Moab, Utah, Fruita, Durango, Crested Butte, and Salida Colorado.</div>
<div><div><br></div><div>Here is our burgeoning website and map.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://juicytrails.com/" target="_blank">http://juicytrails.com/</a></div><div><br></div><div>A central goal of this project is to turn hardcopy trail maps into trail dollars. We have actually already been doing this part of the project for a couple years. We are working with a growing list of trail associations to get their trails on OSM and <a href="http://juicytrails.com" target="_blank">juicytrails.com</a> and then subsequently on hardcopy maps which we will sell directly to trail associations for a very, very small production fee of $.50 per map. The trail associations then sell directly to retailers for $1.50 each, and then the retailers sell for $2.99 each, clearing $1.00 minimum per map. The hardcopy maps have download codes used for installing offline versions of the maps into the Free Juicytrails App. These maps have been a minor hit, and have sold extremely well in some locations.</div>
