OR: I-84 missing exit
« on: June 22, 2024, 09:07:15 pm »
Exit 41 along I-84 in Oregon is missing. This exit serves a bunch of trailheads.

I think the reason we don't have that one, is because you can't turn around and go back in the opposite direction on I-84.

HOWEVER, I can see an edge case that if you were dropped off there, and then picked up around Exit 44 after following the trail (or vice versa).

Because of that, I think it should be added, unlike a 'regular' rest area that gains an exit number, but doesn't have trails that go elsewhere that you could be picked up at.

Would also need to be added into US-30's file too.

Also would recommend Exits #55 & #58 be added as well, as the same thing can happen @ it, just like Exit #41.

You can also bike on I-84 there and exit and take one of the trails.

I believe these were exits that Tim nixed back in CHM.

Well, we can override that now.  Especially since we've proven that it's entirely possible to get off there, and go a separate way if you're hiking or bicycling.

Also I think a lot of the reluctance to add anything like this to CHM was to try to stay within server constraints that TM overcame long ago.  I see no downside to adding them.

There are a lot of potential edge cases to potentially have to accommodate.
If my buddy lives at the bend in North St in Sherman, I can pull over at ME I-95 266 and he can walk through the woods.
Or I could hit a moose and get airlifted to Maine Med.

I guess I could have requested a point here in 2015 when my previous car got towed using the private overpass.   :-X  :-*

But none of these are 'legit' exits for trail heads. ;)

These OR ones have full exit signage. ;)

Agreed that there is the danger of a slippery slope, but I think these aren't too far down it and we can keep from sliding too far.
