Thanks to Judy and Sharon, I'll be revising the "trail"
pages to include
this new variant and the counties involved. And I'll link to Judy's great
material. It's going to take a while because I'm still working on the old
part.
If anyone becomes aware of any online journals of folks who traveled these
trails in Idaho, I'd love to be referred to them.
