[Talk-us] Desert wash that is also vehicle track or path?

[John Eldredge]

The two-relations approach would also handle any points where the roadway 
and stream diverge. For example, if the stream goes over falls, even falls 
only a meter high, vehicles will have to diverge onto the bank to go around 
the drop-off, not over it.
