Hiking trail symbol g-code needed

I need a g-code for the international hiking trail symbol.  See attached jpeg for an example.  Any help would be appreciated.

I need more details of your requirement.

Do you want to route out the white part of just the outline ?
How big and what diameter tool also how deep ?

I want to route out the white part.  The symbol is approximately 2.5" wide.  I assume that a 0.125" tool would be about right. Depth does not make any difference, but probably 0.125" also.

Thanks for your help.

Here's your Gcode for the trail Logo.

Please, take great care about using it, I did not test it.

Height is 12 inches height, use the scale option in Mach3 to made the dimension you need.

Tool is .125 end mill at .125 deep.

Converted from g-code to dxf so I could see the path and try out a program.
