What did we do in the old days of paper maps, where the only hint that a road might be difficult (in a big rig) was the 'scenic route' coding? And National Forest color coding?

I often stopped at a gas station in the area and asked. Worked most of the time but sometimes they'd reply "Keep on this road past the last stop light and turn left where the old schoolhouse used to be."
