Route numbers are, for the most part, derived from nearby equivalent land routes (such as Interstate Highways)
Did it work?
No one ever believes me when I say Idaho has a port
I want to meet the guy who figured out you could sail around all those islands!
wait is this why you see big barges on rivers so much now? kinda cool tbh
TIL I guess I could take a boat on over to Nebraska. See ya in a bit.

So, if you really wanted to you could take a boat from Tulsa, Oklahoma to Lewiston, Idaho?
