usanht: United States National Historic Trails

[bejacob]

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.

TN OVTrl has US412_N which should be US421_N

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).

I would change the north end of VA OVTrl to AbiMusGro (Abingdon Muster Grounds) from AbiMusPla .

Make of this what you will:

This is where the road that is designated as the Pony Express Trail throughout western Utah enters Nevada. And yet TM shows the PE Trail on US-93A and US-93 from Wendover to Ely.

Maybe because of this and this?

Well shoot. I can play this game too.

I'm sure there wasn't just one Pony Express route, since that wouldn't have been very useful. However, NPS has this GIS site for what they think are all the national historic trails, and it doesn't show anything on that US-93 route:

Who puts up these signs, anyway?
