Thanks all for the wonderfull anecdotes, since I only know how to use a sled here it's really usefull. What do you think about: piste:type=sled_slope or leisure=sled_slope which would mean an informal route for pulka/sled/luge, piste:type seems some what sterile and professional I would rather use leisure=sled_slope since I'm really talking about those small 30 meter informal slopes, in leisure=parks or on highway=footway. So some different scenarios: 1. in my leisure=park there is a 100m slope. 2. there are sled parks, where you can go sled on a prepared track, which I'm guessing is mostly for kids/familys(?) 3. The sled parks might be open in the summer 4. in the Alps you have 2km long slopes made up of ordinary highway=* ways, and other shortcuts. [1] I'm thinking 1 and 4 are informal and might be leisure=* and 2, 3 might still be piste:type=sled. [1] I'm imagining a network on normal roads consisting of ~1000kms of sled routes, allowing you to go from eastern Austria to Nice. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
