Mapping question about something I’m seeing in Gaia GPS in the “Outdoors” layer.

The map shows a purple line that follows some roads and trails. If I zoom in the line is shown as purple dots. These purple dots indicate a route?

I finally found a label for this purple line, but so far my internet searches find nothing about this “Cross Snohomish County Hike & Bike Route.”

Clearly this route exists in this map. Where did it come from and how can I learn more about it?

Do you use AllTrails, GAIA GPS or onXmaps?
Surprise! Bet you did not know you are indemnifying those companies.

Worst case translation: The company is sued and you must reimburse the company for the attorney fees they spend defending themselves. That is my understanding of the gist of “indemnification”.
