- No site qualifies for per-site Directions: the reviewed association or a published coordinate is missing, which is a data state, never evidence about access.
Each statement is bounded to its named source; absence of a record is never evidence of no access. The DNR access database may lag reality; posted signs at the landing are authoritative.
