Lookouts along this byway

None mapped yet. Byway lists an overlook only when a real source reports it — OpenStreetMap, an official agency record, or a local confirmation — and nothing on this byway has cleared that bar. When one does, it shows up here.

Parks and public land along this byway

Protected land this corridor runs through, or comes within thirty miles of. Distance is measured to each unit’s official boundary, not its center point, so a road at the entrance reads as the entrance.
