Trail Maps
I started a couple of maps on google maps:
Lookout Mtn:

Cumberland Trail:
http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid...
Let me know if the links work. Anyone interested in helping out with these let me know, I think I can add people as collaborators. It would be nice to add trail descriptions and what not, to make it an even better resource for trail runners. I really need GPS tracks of the trails for anyone that has them. I know a lot of the smartphones have apps that will work if you don't have a GPS. I can also put the tracks into GIS and create some more maps.
I saw the old discussion on a trail database, and would be interested to know how far it got/where it left off, so I don't waste time duplicating work.
Let me know what you think.

Google maps is a disaster. I tried adding some trails I mapped this past weekend on Lookout, and things started getting wierd. It is a pain to work with, and since it limits the number of features per page, areas as trail rich as Lookout don't work well. I think I will just put everything in google earth and host the KMZ files somewhere for anyone that wants them.
