Year-Round Trail Information for a Community Recreation Area

Overview

Barkeater Trails Alliance needed trailhead signage for Pisgah Ski Area that could support navigation, safety, stewardship, and both winter and summer recreation. Green Goat Maps created a detailed trail map and accompanying interpretive information for durable outdoor display.

This map highlights Mount Pisgah, a family-friendly recreation area in Saranac Lake, showcasing trails for mountain biking and multi-use activities. The trail network includes routes for various skill levels, with color-coded trails like Sanduro and Zonkers. The map emphasizes responsible recreation, trail etiquette, and collaboration with Ride With Gratitude to promote safety and respect among users. Additional sections include guidelines for multi-use trail behavior, operating hours, and environmental stewardship.

Scope of Work

Green Goat Maps was contracted to map trails, buildings, ski lifts, roads, and access points; create a locator inset; develop visitor content related to safety, stewardship, and recreation; and coordinate production of weather-resistant trailhead panels.

Key Deliverables

The finished signage combines a detailed Pisgah Mountain map with safety and stewardship information. Digital files were also prepared for use beyond the physical kiosk environment.

Challenges & Solutions

Trailhead users typically want answers within seconds: Where am I? Which trail should I take? What should I know before I leave? Green Goat Maps organized detailed recreation information around those immediate visitor needs while leaving room for stewardship messaging.

Results & Client Value

BETA gained a durable information resource that supports both practical navigation and responsible trail use across seasons.
