On a related note, after a few surprises, the City of Waterloo learned to stake its trails early on the west side. About 15 years ago when the land was developed, the trails weren't put in yet. After people lived in their houses, and in some cases, landscaped their yards, the City arrived with their survey stakes to identify the trail easement that ran between the houses and the woodlot. If you ever see a plastic four by four pillar with a City of Waterloo logo, you're likely looking at a place where they City had to stake its claim.
