@Sitush: This is a fantastic article. Is there's a reference to back up the first half of the hook? Both times that pioneers were mentioned in the article went without a citation. Thank you kindly. Meanderingbartender (talk) 20:44, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
Page 82 of the Dickerman source, page 29 of the Tolles source, several others. I thought it was pretty obvious from the narrative - first trail, first inn, places named after them etc. Rephrase the hook if necessary but I'm too ill to be messing about with Wikipedia at the moment, sorry, and the ladies at the nursing station are casting peculiar looks in my direction, it being 00:43 here right now. - Sitush (talk) 23:43, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
Sincerely, I hope you feel better soon and don't get harassed too much by the nurses. Brown did the trick for me. Thank you kindly.Meanderingbartender (talk) 00:06, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
