The checklist's test — a million counted uses, or whatever the counters say — cannot be run for Mishawaka, because the counters' record does not reach print. No published trail-count series for the Mishawaka Riverwalk was found in the record this build reached: not in the city's parks publications, not in the regional planning body's public inventories as opened here, not in the press record. What the record holds instead is a characterization, and it prints at its own strength: the Chamber's December 2017 account says the loop "has attracted thousands of visitors seeking a great place to run, walk, bike or just gather" — thousands of visitors, uncounted and undated within the year, the only use figure the system's first two decades produced in print. The events record corroborates heavy use without counting it — 1,200 hospice riders in a single September morning of 2014, the farmers' market crowds at the biergarten — but corroboration is not a count. The settling records are named: the Michiana Area Council of Governments' trail-count program, which counts the region's trails with mechanical counters, and any counter data in the city's parks files. Until one of those series is opened, counted use for this system stands as a named absence inside a heavily used fact.
