23. Bread Crumbs Option - Bread Crumbs are trail indicators of where the user has been on the Water Atlas. For example, if a user chooses Fish & Wildlife from under the Topics menu and then chooses Birds under Fish & Wildlife, a trail will be displayed indicating how they got to the Birds section: Topics < Fish & Wildlife < Birds. These indicators will be displayed & hyperlinked, so the user can easily navigate backwards from where they are to where they have been. Would you like to include this option in the new Water Atlas Front Page Design?
