Idaho City

Before the wagons left the Laramie Plains, a quiet epidemic began infecting some of the settlers. It was a disease without a cure and threatened to create havoc among the families.It started as just a passing remark, but soon word of a recent discovery surrounding Idaho City, just three hundred miles away inspired intense gold rush fever in many of the men. The first to become infected was Joe's fellow scout, Chuck Lynch.They would reach the turnoff to Idaho City in less than three weeks and Joe and Faith worried they would lose many of their friends when they reached the intersection.
