Goodale's Cutoff

Goodale's Cutoff formed a spur of the Oregon Trail in Idaho, United States. The cutoff left the trail near Fort Hall, crossed the Snake River Plain to the Lost River, and then turned west to the area of Boise, crossing Camas Prairie. It rejoined the main trail from Ditto Creek to Boise, then ran to the north of the main trail, joining at the Powder River, near Baker.^[2]
