Then we would see! The trees are not intrinsic to the idea. David I would love to test this out in real life. Then we would see! The trees are not intrinsic to the idea.

Therefore do you think the trees and vegetation at the start points, A & B, are an important part of this design? I was wondering if people are more likely to go in a straight line if they can not see the destination point at the other side. If people could see the destination point would it encourage them turn left and take the "scenic route"? Both paths seem to be the most direct to the goal of reaching A or B.
