It does seem to be a grey area where one could choose either track or path based on whether they think functional use or width + possible vehicle use is more important. tekim, is there a way to share the tagging list conversation? I've recently added some ways in the red feather area that are old two-tracks and could be regarded as either tracks or paths, so I'd like to have a definitive decision to guide my future edits.

cosmocatalano, I visit this area regularly. Even though it is a two track for emergency use and land managers, it is not accessed for forestry or agricultural use. I don't think anyone is using this path to drive to their crops or extract timber. Please review the wikis: osm.wiki/Path_examples. This discussions also points out the distinction: osm.wiki/Path_controversy, and states that all agree that highway=path where motor vehicles are forbidden.
