  • C. Developing Trail Systems
    C. DEVELOPING TRAIL SYSTEMS Trails are more than simply lines on a map, a form of transportation or route to destinations. Trails are an experience. Engaging trails systems provide a sense of unique place, highlight natural topography and attract outdoor-based tourism. A vast and varied experience hooks trails users and leaves them wanting to return for more exploration. This tool kit offers suggestions for building destination-worthy trail systems. Best Management Practices For Developing Trail Systems Sustainability Simplified. Sustainable trails provide an intended experience in a steady state with minimal undesired impacts. Sustainability does not have to mean “sanitizing” or “dumbing- down” trails… yet, expect to hear that concern. Well-designed trail systems need not come at the detriment of natural resources. Trails can actually help protect resources by fostering appreciation for the great outdoors and by managing users Greenbelt Trail in Costilla County (courtesy of Root to minimize impacts while maximizing fun. Four House Studio) components of trail sustainability: • Physical: Trails remains in intended condition with rhythmic vs. tight and twisty) and the distinctive minimal erosion, braiding, or degradation. qualities of a trail or system. • Environmental: Trails minimize disturbance to flora • Challenge tests fitness and ability. Treat each as + fauna and sedimentation to watersheds. Planned a different measure. Ability refers to technical trails systems—even with increased mileage— aptitudes like sure-footedness, bike handling, can yield less impact than existing conditions scrambling or even navigation. Fitness refers by keeping users on trail, reducing erosion and to the capacity for sustained effort required for avoiding areas of greatest habitat sensitivity.

  • Information Sheet: Skateboarding Safety, Page 1 of 3 Last Revised on August 31, 2012 for More Information: Or
    Driving on the Right Side of the Road Skateboarding Safety JUST THE FACTS In 2009, there were approximately 74,841 injuries to children involving skateboards.1 o Of those 74,841 injuries, an estimated 3,054 were serious injuries.2 60% of skateboard injuries involve children under age 15; most of those injured are boys. At highest risk are: o Inexperienced skateboarders. Those who have been skating for less than one week suffer one-third of injuries, usually caused by falls. o Skateboarders who do not wear protective equipment. Every skateboarder should wear standard safety gear. This includes a helmet, wrist guards, elbow and knee pads, and appropriate shoes. Skateboarders who perform tricks should use heavy duty gear. o Skateboarders who go near traffic or use homemade skateboard ramps. Both activities are particularly dangerous. o Experienced skateboarders who encounter unexpected surfaces or try risky stunts. Irregular riding surfaces, rocks, or other debris can cause you to fall. You can stumble over twigs or fall down slopes. Wet pavements and rough or uneven surfaces can cause a wipeout. Avoid risky behavior. Don't skateboard too fast or in dangerous or crowded locations. Skateboarders who have been skating for less than a week suffer one-third of all skateboarding injuries; riders with a year or more of experience have the next highest number of injuries.3 Injuries to first-time skateboarders are mainly due to falls.4 Experienced riders mainly suffer injuries when they fall after their skateboards strike rocks and other irregularities in the riding surface or when they attempt difficult stunts.5 Skateboarding is a special risk for young children6 because: o Children have a higher center of gravity, less development and poor balance.

  • Kidliks Kayak Cover 1.0-HOME
    KIDLIK’ S KAYAK TERRY SHANNON SOME INUIT WORDS The Inuits have no written language of their own. Thus the spelling of Inuit words may vary from one interpreter to another depending on his translation of sound into writing. Words also may vary from one area to another. Artiggi – inner coat or shirt made of skin (worn fur side in) Igloo – winter house (whether made of snow, stone, sod, or wood) Iviuk – walrus Kayak – one-man canoe (sealskin cover over bone or wood frame) Kokiwok – harpoon Komatik – sled Kudele – soapstone lamp, half-moon shaped (used for both light and heat, it burns blubber) Kulitak – outer coat made of skin (worn fur side out) Mukluk – boot made of fur Muktuk – whale skin with blubber still attached (cut in pieces and eaten like candy) Nanook – polar bear Netchik – seal Tuktu – caribou (species of reindeer) Tupik – summer dwelling (generally a tent made of skins) Ugrug – bearded seal Ulu – woman’s knife Umiak – long boat which carries many passengers (usually paddled by women) KIDLIK’S KAYAK All was still outside the igloos in the Inuit village where Kidlik lived. It was evening. In the dusk, the igloos built of snow blocks looked like large mounds with smoothly rounded tops. Lights from the stone lamps inside glowed dimly through the windows made of ice. Kidlik came out of the family igloo and took a deep breath. “The time is almost here,” he said softly to himself. For days he had been seeing signs that the Arctic summer would soon come. The sun was staying longer in the sky, and the sea ice was cracking here and there.

  • In-Line Skating in a Certain Area of the City
    Driving on the Right Side of the Road Inline Skating Safety JUST THE FACTS Often called “rollerblading” after a popular brand of inline skates, it is estimated that more than 17 million Americans participate in the sport of inline skating.1 According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 61,000 people were treated for inline- skating-related injuries in hospital emergency rooms, doctors’ offices, clinics, and other medical settings in 2007.2 From 2003-2007, the Consumer Product Safety Commission estimated an average of 32,585 inline skating injuries occurred annually.3 Most of the many thousands of inline skating injuries that happen each year are attributable to skaters who aren't wearing safety gear.4 Sidewalks and roads are the sites of roughly half of all inline skating injuries.5 Head injuries can plague skaters who don't wear helmets.6 IT’S THE LAW Texas laws do not specifically speak to inline skating, however, there are existing laws that apply to pedestrians and bicyclists that may apply. A number of cities have specific ordinances that govern inline skating. Check your city's website or http://www.municode.com for ordinances that apply to your town or city. Here are several examples of the types of local laws that have been adopted by cities across the state: o Many cities have made it against the law to skate on any public street except when crossing a street in a crosswalk. For instance, the City of San Marcos has the following ordinance: . It is unlawful for a person upon roller skates, inline skates, a skateboard or riding in or by means of any coaster, toy vehicle or similar device, to go upon any public street, except while crossing a street in a crosswalk.7 o Several other cities have nearly identical ordinances.8 However, cities may decide that an ordinance like this should not apply to roller skates, as Houston did in this ordinance: .
