path marker
Route indication device
A path marker is a sign, post, blaze, or other indicator showing the route of a trail or walkway.
Hikers follow path markers through wilderness areas; colored blazes on trees are common path markers in forested regions.
The term extends to any signal that helps navigate a course: The cairns served as path markers across the rocky terrain.
