Trail signage question

This morning I inquired about volunteering for the county to help build and maintain trails in my area. I talked to the man that is in charge of the trails and he mentioned that he could use help with the signs on the trail. His biggest concern was for someone that was injured on the trail to be able to know their approximate location to speed up the time for help. At the same time he does not want to clutter the trail. So, does anyone have any suggestions or maybe experiences on your own local trail that you find helpful for this type of situation.

The trail system is a multi-use asphalt trail that goes around a lake(Smithville Lake in Smithville, MO)

I personally think the trail is great but I guess there has been a situation where a biker had fallen and injured his knee and not be able to inform the rangers of his location. In his case it wasn't serious but it raised the concern.

Thank you for any input in advance.
