Introduction (continued)

For example, a narrow winding trail might be the right choice for foot traffic in wilderness, while one with broad, sweeping turns would be appropriate for an ATV (all–terrain vehicle) route. A smooth trail with a gentle grade is more appropriate for an interpretive trail or a trail designed for disabled persons (figure 1 and figure 2).
