These bailout trails would probably be a welcome addition and would be
immediately added if there were GPS tracks for them. If folks have GPS
tracks for these trails, send them to half mile.

Otherwise, maps that show just the trail you are on are nearly useless in
these situations. Nobody wants to carry around the extra weight, but
without the extra maps how do you know where to bail out if someone doesn't
show you where and how?
