In the US, “NO THRU TRUCKS” is a dead giveaway that you are staring at a shortcut route. And as it isn’t “PRIVATE ROAD”, you are not trespassing.

If it’s not someone’s home, and you are not engaged in nefarious activity, you will not be shot for trespassing. You will be told to leave.

PSA: Don't try this in rural Wyoming...

Even in cattle country, if you make no attempt to hide your presence, I would expect no trouble. I have pulled a gun on someone and had one pulled on me. It was fine both times. Just needed to be explained.

... if you got to the point where gun was pulled on you, that was already a situation where it's so fine? I'll be honest, I don't understand how can you be so calm.

I live in a mostly rural state. Guns are common. Dealing with some person who doesn’t know you, doesn’t know what you want, and is an hour away from law enforcement support has to have some self-reliance. Hands up, explain why you are there, and you can be friends. High-visibility vests help, but you might ditch them.

I had a buddy who said the way you knew it was a good fishing spot was because you got pistol whipped by an AK-47 the last time you were there.
