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.
