[Tagging] Trailhead tagging

[Andy Townsend]

Can you give a few examples of what trailheads are to you? There's a 
clearly defined American concept, it isn't not really used much in 
British English.  Also what do you mean by "official" below - is there 
some kind of VVV list or similar?

Best Regards,

Andy
