Abstract
A trail marking system having a plurality of trail markers, a remote control handset for selectively activating the trail markers, and a setting tool for setting and removing the trail markers. To use the trail marking system, a hunter attaches a trail marker into a tree using the setting tool. The trail markers contain externally perceivable indicators that can be selectively turned on an off. When the indicators in the trail markers are off, the trail markers are inconspicuous. However, when the indicators are activated, they are highly visible. The trail markers are selectively turned on an off using the remote control handset. As such, a hunter can selectively turn on and off the trail markers as he/she walks along the trail.
