Each Sat & Sun I mountain bike 2-3 hours with 1-3 friends from my house around Bush Park here in Houston and I have a Garmin Forerunner 200 which has a GPS and logs the routes. In addition to all the main paths we've found all sorts of old trails that we keep clear of deadfall etc and I'd like other bikers and dog walkers to also know about these trails to help keep them open. To do that I'd like to build a map of these trails. I'm thinking that the best way to do this is to make a pdf map that people could download and print out by downloading a map or from screen shots of Bing or Google Maps and via PowerPoint adding dirt, gravel, asphalt, and concrete trail routes and notes of bridges an landmarks etc then printing to a pdf.
I've never done this before so any advice on best system and way of doing this is appreciated . . . John.
PS: Probably there is some group in UK that does this type of thing of keeping the old common walkways open, anyone know what that's called or a popular website?
