well, the alps are in Europe, no doubt, but that doesn't necessarily mean that "alpine hut" isn't a prototype that could be found also outside the alps (and therefor the tag might be useful also outside the alps). Not sure what exactly the OSM definition for an "alpine hut" is, especially as there were some modifications to this page last year which now state that the hut must be "managed during the opening period" (not true for some place I know of, which I would nonetheless classify as alpine_hut). http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag%3Atourism%3Dalpine_hut&diff=768391&oldid=689867 cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
