Apparently, the GPS map makers are including every road in their devices even dirt roads, abandoned roads, closed roads, roads last used a 100 years ago, hiking trails, and cow paths. I suspect that they use various free government maps like forest service maps and USGS topo maps as their source. We have the tragedy in Death Valley as a result. Also, wasn't there a recent case of someone following a GPS map that took them to an old logging road in Oregon in a blizzard?
