825 ends here. This sign is deceiving. I wanted 365 East from here. How do I do that? I ended up on 49 East, with no exit to switch back for a few miles. [Crop/Zoom: 541x879]

Looking for some new roads - never been on 170 before. [Crop/Zoom: 1038x1481]

[Crop/Zoom: 555x590]

[Crop/Zoom: 457x648]

Or 170A. [Crop/Zoom: 220x282]
