Could it be a general trail width issue that nowadays seems to necessitate a larger trail sign that can be read from often 100+ feet away whereas in the past with generally narrower trails one was often much closer to the trail sign, regardless of where they stopped near the entrance to a trail?
I guess that's a possibility but when did they really start getting in to using larger trail signs on the ground....10 years at the most? I really don't think a whole lot of trails have been widened or built in that time frame. Maybe it's just bad luck but I think these trails signs are put in places where people tend to gravitate to like a split in a trail.
