I get your point and agree that a trails impact is less than that of a clear cut or other development. But I can see many trails on Google Earth that are not hidden by forest cover. I can see the hiking trails in the alpine around Black Tusk. Go to Slickrock in Moab and you’ll see the tire rubber on the trails from space. Pretty remarkable really.
