Hey there, avid skiers -
As you know, it’s not currently possible to add ski lifts or ski runs using Google Map Maker. Every now and then, we see mappers using unsupported techniques such as adding trail segments in place of ski features.
While we understand your frustration and appreciate your creative approach, these trail features are sometimes auto-approved, which then renders on top of the ski-related information on map tiles and upsets the integrity of the map.
With your patience being the key element in helping us improve the maps, we’ll be continuing along internal avenues to help enrich the maps.
So whether you’re hitting the slopes, or mapping your favorite resorts, we appreciate you leaving ski lifts and runs unmapped at this time. Thanks for your understanding in this matter, and stay tuned for any future updates!
Cheers,
Lori
