The North Lake Trail marker at the Y, 2026

Clean and fully legible, on the same junction as the two blank wooden arrows and photographed twenty-six seconds after them. The contrast between the two is the record: the fork is marked by current signage while the older directional boards beside it are spent.

The sign’s artwork and wording are not the photographer’s.

Positioned by matching shutter time to the walked GPS track; the camera's own EXIF GPS was not used and is unreliable across this set. See the image's provenance sidecar.
