Is their not a plastic sheet covering the posted maps and signs? Like the structure is wood, but most I have seen have a plastc covering over the display.

And ya sometimes the scratches and smearing and graffiti makes it unreadable.

We mostly have metal plates or a pin board with glass. People take care of them.

The bougie ones have glass... That might be what they are referring to.

I do a lot of hiking and most often it's plastic. Weirdly you find the glass covered ones in usually boring trails in small towns that seem very rarely traveled. I have even seem some that are just cork board, with nothing covering it. The pages are either lamented, or less desirably slipped into a 3 ring binder type sleeve and stapled.

Those lesser traveled locations probably have lower rates of vandalism. Also, lower budgets, glass is cheaper than acrylic or polycarb.
