Local Knowledge

Posted by Synapsensalat on 29 September 2014 in English.

We have been on a very nice trip to the beach at Crosshaven. I brought my field map with me to map a bit. In the end we went a completely different way because we had a local with us to guide us. It was beautiful. But now I’m not sure if I should map the path we took. Locals wouldn’t show these ways even to new residents. But one thing is so important I would like to map it. But don’t know how to tag it. It’s an open well in the middle of what is now a sweet corn field. Basically it’s an uncovered maybe 6 meter deep hole. Any suggestions?

Sounds like it. With a description= tag noting how this is (as I understand from your post) an actual hazard.

Thanks, yeah. But was hoping for something that adds an red exclamation mark in the map. Maybe somebody will invent that. Someday.
