Might it be worth implementing some sort of "minimum" standard for what types of routes should be included?

I know some of the MT secondary highways are gravel, but most of those I've driven have been acceptable. Same with the western half of Montezuma Canyon Road in Arizona, though the rental Toyota Corolla might not have been the best choice there.  :-\

Perhaps signage is not enough when considering "roads" that are not official at the state level or above. Could be a topic to discuss further.

The Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail has a few signs scattered around the Bay Area. I wasn't able to travel much of it, but saw signs directing travelers from I-80 to San Pablo Ave and from CA 4 to Byron Hwy. There were more signs in San Francisco and on US 101 near Gilroy.


According to the NPS map, the path between I-80 exit 23 and CA 4 exit 6 follows city streets and rural roads through Rodeo and Crockett, but I didn't notice any signs while I took the westbound path that best matched the line on the map (McEwen Rd - Carquinez Scenic Dr - Pomona St - San Pablo Ave).
