While visiting the facebook A T class of 2016 page I came across this video about how they make trail signs which I thought was rather interesting and thought I'd share.
And since we're on the subject of trail markings, I recall a few trailjournals from this year mentioning that the trail was not clearly mark (white blazes) especially in New England. So, do you think there is room for improvement with more or better white blazes?
When I hiked Amicalola to Neels the trail just before long falls is both the BMT & the AT and is marked with white diamonds instead of white blazes which I found confusing but I figured it out and made it through but I thought they could have done a better job by having both blazes.
