Well... 'cutline' is defined as a 'way' in the canvec data, although it is really an area. As 'landuse=clear_cut' (or natural=clear_cut; crowdsource=beavers)
Usually, in accessable areas, there is an 'unofficial' path that gets warn down after use. In the summer, these become great Motercycle/ATV tracks & in the summer, it makes for great landuse debate with the Hiking, cycling & Equestrian community. ... Getting the land owner(s) all confused. .... As its the beavers property to begin with. :@) Since we dont tag for the render. A 'cutline' which it actually is, can be tagged as 'man_made=cutline' route=winter_road' I'll check the canvec features & make a new message about that. ... And slightly more sensable at that. Thanks for bringing that up :-) But im sure someone else can ACTUALLY answer the origional question.
