Google maps gets even weirder

No, Baptist Corner Road does not make a sharp left there -- that's not a road, it's a snowmobile track. Seriously, there's no road there, and never has been, as far as I know. There are maple trees old enough to tap (and a farmer who does), and a 40% grade.
This is getting really strange...
More and more, I trust Google Maps less and less in our area. It's the default for when you select the "Show me a map!" option for events on http://www.eastkingdom.org, but I'm beginning to wonder if it should be any more.
Contrariwise, MapQuest has added an option to avoid seasonally closed roads.
