The image isn't mine, but the rules allow for images by other people to be used, so don't mind me!

I guess I'll also contribute to the reboot of this game.  Here's an Indian 9 in the Navajo Nation on US 491 north of Gallup, New Mexico.  September 26, 2003.

Photos I post are my own unless otherwise noted.

Why is North Dakota's western boundary not vertical on its route shields?  That's dumb.

I think it has to do with the standard United States projection, where lines of latitude "curve" northward toward both sides and lines of longitude go up toward the center. That said, it still shouldn't be done in a context like this.

Looks like CR 14 was used last time, so I'll go with Alabama 14 in Pickensville:

Finally can participate! Looks like previous 15 was CT 15 at I-95, so here's I-15 just outside Cascade, MT:

Thanks for the setup Father!
Apparently the old one was a CR 16 somewhere, so US 16 in Rapid City should work.

The original 26 picture in this game is now at a dead link, so I'll take my chances that we didn't go to New Mexico 26 that time.  Taken in Deming, October 14, 2018.
