nice edit!

Hello. I'm curious what your rubric is for determining when to change place? Glennallen has all the amenities of a town and contextually village has a different meaning here.

New article today explains the origin of Igloo city.

"That’s the reason Google Maps labels the structure as Igloo City — a previous owner got a liquor license under that name for the building with the intention of having more igloos nearby, and the name stuck even if the owner did not, Fisher said."

Are you connected to the Igloo City push?

This is not Europe and so you're assumption doesn't hold. We know the origin of this area because it isn't more than a hundred years old.

This area is called Cantwell (as listed in AtlasObscura under igloo city).

Cantwell's origin is traced to it as a railroad stopping point and named after Lieutenant J. C. Cantwell.

Wikipedia has more info as you need.

The origin of who called it igloo city is unsourced.

Here's a twitter thread from a local historian that writes twice weekly columns for the largest Alaska newspaper and there is no reference to "igloo city".

This is cool. Is there a website that has compiled all of these webcams to browse?

I have never in my 37 years heard this place called igloo city.

thx.

This is what the girlfriend told me from her camping adventure. I'm not against removing it.

I would be inclined to call it piste:skitour. I don't think many people are hiking snowshoeing but I can't speak for each trail.

I would say go ahead with caution that a packed winter trail could see plenty of traffic one year and have a different parallel route the next yet. In those cases, the utility or reality of the route might be questionable. At the very least, perhaps listed as piste only.

I leave it to you though. There's no way I'll be able to do an on the ground validation of all those trails soon.

Hello Greg. Are you sourcing these trails from Strava heat map and satellite imagery or a different source?Thanks.

nice edits. I hope you keep adding bike improvements and more.

There were a couple edits to your changeset that I made that I just thought you might want to know.

1. I moved the bike repair station to a separate point from one of the points on the parking lot polygon.

2. I removed my existing path for fish creek trail so there wasn't a duplicate footpath and bike path.

Adding bike repair stations sounds like a good little projects. Do you know a good source for all the installations around Anchorage. Cheers.

You can see the edit I made here:

nice edit. can you tell what trail segments are missing from the hillside single-track system?

Hi. Just wanted to say these peaks are a great improvement. Thanks.

nice edit!

Thanks for the response. I have worked with GTFS transit feed databases and done almost entirely iD mapping but independently. I don't think I would like to get started with JOSM even though I have it installed because I'm happy mostly casually mapping on a browser.

Specifically though I have one question, if there was a clear process to import a gtfs in JOSM and automate most of the import I would love to hear what you know.
