There is a lot going on at this point with the road. For some time, this appears to have been used as an access road for the River Queen moorage, but has been abandoned again since the state revoked the lease, removed the old ferry, and cleaned up the site. In the 2012 image, below, tire tracks from this use almost completely obscure where the original pavement originally veered to the west to connect with the north end of the Wilbur Road Fragment. This old curve is more visible in the 2018 photo, though when we were out there in August, grass was starting to grow over this section, once again obscuring the route of the pavement.
Past this point, continuing south, I believe the existing road was a temporary shoefly used while the cut was being made for the modern highway.
