Ultimately consider adding a route relation with network=US:NSFR:Forest
Name:FH/FR as well so we can finally kill off route tagging on things that
are not routes.  Not sure we really need the FH/FR distinction, however,
since within the same forest, they're all the same network: The 2 digit
routes are major, the 3 digits are minor (like parking lots and
campgrounds) and the 4 digits are usually only usable by log trucks and
4x4s.  Trails are another matter.
