ATC Trail Design Manual

The Raleigh (NC) News & Observer reports on the trail maintenance work being done on the Falls Lake Trail in an article by Joe Miller titled "Falls Lake Trail goes farther" on 26 April 2007.

They include reference to an ATC manual:
"The handiwork reflects a changing understanding of how to build trails, an understanding that has evolved into a science spelled out in two trail-building guidebooks used by the Friends of the Mountains to Sea Trail: "Lightly on the Land," a 267-page tome, and "Appalachian Trail Design, Construction and Maintenance," published by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy."
