They often don't show up on satellite images with any kind of growth. They were imported as highway=residential. I've been adding new forest service roads as tracks when they are just a pair of tire tracks. We should really make an effort to remove the highway=residential from the forest service roads IMHO. I'd hate to see someone get stuck or lost thinking that a forest service road would make a good short cut. -- Clifford OpenStreetMap: Maps with a human touch
