I sent Ben, the poster of comment, email:

Did the trail have colour code on countryside series map? – codes can indicate importance of trails, inc those that may be less maintained. "small pieces of tissue" not official; are some trails done by explorer types

No, it was not an "official trail" such as Wilson, Mclehose or HK trail. On the country trail maps, it is actually referenced with black dotted line.
I usually find those trails much more interesting and I myself totally understand the potential difficulties that we can encounter hiking on those paths. I was just wondering whether those paths were actually maintained by government people or just by individuals who like the mountain like us… I am planning on my side to go back there and try to add some additional "tissues" and I wanted to let the people in charge (if any) know but from your response, I understand that there is no such people….
I sent follow-up reply, to effect that must take extra care on such minor yet "interesting" trails
