From near Challis, Idaho off 93, you can drive up Morgan Creek Road to the pass of the same name , Panther Creek Road is the road after the pass but same route, then turn east onto Salmon River Road. Last September, we had the place to ourselves as rafting season was done. Beautiful easy drive...
These are some great questions. We usually look for historical POI on Benchmark Atlases then do online research. Sometimes, we stumble upon an historical marker so I note it on my Benchmark Map on Avenza app then look it up when we get a signal. Usually, the marker has quite a bit of info. We...

We were there last September. Beautiful area. Very extensive settlement. I like Coolidge better than Bannock State Park as Coolidge us more authentic in the sense that it is t being preserved. Fewer people, too. Have you been to Ross Creek ancient forest? Thanks for the memories.
Home projects pushed this trip into early October. We had originally planned to explore further north (Southern Sawtooths, Jarbidge, Uintas, Dinosaur Area, Northwestern Colorado). Now, it appears we will be heading South by Southeast.
