Part of #1002. Blocked on #1003.
Problem
Trail difficulty is inferred from distance alone, because ascent is not available. Across a 400-trail production sample that produces 310 easy, 21 moderate, 69 hard — a grading that says almost nothing true:
- A 0.1-mile scramble straight up a cliff grades easy.
- A flat 250-mile rail-trail grades hard.
/trails sorted longest-first therefore opens on a wall of national scenic trails all badged HARD, which is the first impression the catalog makes.
Every difficulty filter in the product is currently sorting by distance a second time, and the badge on each card is telling people something we have not measured.
Acceptance
