Measuring Trail Degradation, Mudhole
Detailed Description
Three field staff assessing trail conditions at one of more than 3000 trail transects along the Appalachian Trail. This transect sampled a rare mudhole in Vermont. More than 20 indicators are assessed to characterize tread conditions and provide data used in regression modeling to identify factors that managers can manipulate to minimize degradation or to design more sustainable trails.
