Multiple Highway Route Vectors

This is one of only two triple-numbered stretches of highway in Washington. This one's in Yakima. Where's the other?

3 - Yakima 82-12-97 Sign Ch

Whenever I see multiple directions on a highway sign like this, I try to calculate the resulting vector in my head. This one's almost due southeast (82+12 vs. 97). (The highway itself is running almost due south, though.)

Well, I say there's another triple-numbered highway, but with Google Streetview, I don't see any triple signs, actually.

Plus I found a third triple-numbered highway without a triple sign.

Does that make it easier or harder to find them?

Nevermind about the first part of that comment I added. The first other triple-number highway actually does have a triple sign.
