Explanation:
"But Cameahwait and the other Shoshones ruled out the Salmon as a way to the Pacific because of its rapids and canyons, which eliminated travel either by boat or on horseback.

That first night camping near the Salmon, Clark was impressed with the size and beauty of the river. But two days later, he came to the conclusion the river was truly impassable."
The Mountain Shoshone (sheepeaters), Nez Perce, and Flathead indians fished and traded on the Salmon river for many years.

Hints Key: Shed Hunts
By creating a Shed Hunt for all of the provided Markers, you get a revealing key of information about where the Hidden Shed was located.
State Highway 28
The goals values without any sheds in the chart hint at State Highway 28's proximity to the Hidden Shed.
State highway 93
The Deadhead goals values without any deadheads in the chart hint at highway 93's proximity to the Hidden Shed.
Deadhead names:
All were lost | without each other, | connections | that discovered | and recovered

Correct Species
Only one Shed Marker was labeled as brown, to indicate which shed antler you should be looking for, which identifies the species that should be selected for the respective map layers.
Average Shed Elevation
The Shed Hunts features conveniently figures the average elevation of all the Shed Markers you added to the Shed Hunt. This Average Elevation value matches the elevation of where the actual Hidden Shed was located.
This also reveals the correct Elevation Band color that should be used to visibly narrow down possible locations for the Hidden Shed on your map with the Elevation Bands map layer.
Distance from Nearest Road
The distance value of the Matching Sets of Shed Markers indicates how far to hike from the nearest road to the location of the Hidden Shed.
County Founding Dates
Each Matched Set of Shed Markers had additional Size and Points values. In the Shed Hunts, these are more easily read in the correct order with the Biggest Shed stats for each species that had a matching set.
Mule Deer Biggest Shed stat:
1, 9
Elk Biggest Shed stat:
18, 69
