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