Hi, Thank you for the edit. Please clarify why ways were removed from the trail relation, and what is meant by removing trail highlighting.

Hello. Thank you for your message. I thought taking away the highlighting of Jones Gap and Rainbow Falls trails would better serve to conformity of the rest of the trails in the Mountain Bridge trail system (as none others are highlighted). If you disagree then my apologies. I certainly do not mean to step on any toes here.

Hi - I like your idea to make the trails in the Mountain Bridge trail system look more similar. Some trails are set as highway=path (dashed line) and others as highway=footway(dotted line). Bicycle permissions are set separately, so either path or footway could be used. The Hiking documentation on the OpenStreetMap Wiki tends to favor path, but some editors have different presets.
In OpenStreetMap, trails are split to show features such as slope, hiking SAC Scale rating, and bridges. relations are used to identify all segments as part of a single named trail. Those features can then be automatically highlighted on a map. Having a relation can also show trail markers that match the physical trail markers in the future.
What type of map were you looking at which showed the trails as highlighted?Regards,

Good morning. Thank you. The map that shows the highlighted Jones Gap Trail and Rainbow Falls Trail is the "Cycle Map". Interestingly the other maps (standard, transport, mapquest, humanitarian) do not.

Hi - We have been adding the relations to all the trails in the area; here is a link to the hiking map. They will appear on the next iteration of the Cycle map in the next 2 weeks. http://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/en/?zoom=13&lat=35.11326&lon=-82.59994&hill=0
