Additional Details

This stage line ran from 1866 to 1910, bringing passengers from Gibbonsville and Salmon, ID through the Lemhi Pass at the Montana line to Red Rock. Here we are promised a mere 25-hour journey to the rail connection, visits to the "Black Bird Mining Camp, the Coming Copper Camp of the World," and food: "The Company Runs its Own Eating Houses." The company ran advertisements with somewhat similar text in the Idaho Recorder from at least October 1904 to November 1905.
