Reader Updates Huckleberry Trail
Thanks to Trailsnet reader John for trail mileage updates on Virginia’s Huckleberry Trail. Trailsnet relies on readers like you and John to keep us updated about trails. This is especially true of trails entered by users. Although they usually do a great job, sometimes their facts don’t always figure and their figures aren’t always factual.
Thanks for the Trail Comments!!
It would appear that numerous comments to Trailsnet were ignored over the past few months. WordPress normally does an excellent job of notifying me when new comments are posted, but for some reason, I wasn’t notified about a dozen comments. So for all of you who I failed to acknowledge… Sorry ’bout that!!
Trail Wiki Needed?
One of the comments that went unacknowledged was also from John, and it made a great trail suggestion. John noted, “I just feel that until there is a wiki type trail site , like Wikipedia, we will never have a up to date forum for trails.. too many things happen Like last week we had a wind storm and most trails in area are impassable because of tree’s down. with a wiki and thousands , and local riders there would be good up to date information , like a detour route. Even trail link which continues to improve; is slow and not current.. and they have funding, and many many years behind them.. where Wikipedia in just a few years out performed hundred year old encyclopedia companies.”
These are excellent points, John, and thanks for sharing them. I would love to have Trailsnet turn into just such a wiki where trail enthusiasts can share trail updates, suggestions and information. Maybe someday, that is exactly how Trailsnet will evolve. Until then, trail fans are encouraged to continue sharing comments and trail information on Trailsnet.
