By the time Idaho was admitted to the Union as the 43rd state in 1890, a further eight counties had been created, bringing the total to 18. After Canyon, Fremont and Bannock Counties had been created, Alturas and Logan Counties were merged to form Blaine County in March 1895; Lincoln County was formed out of Blaine County later the same month.

During the 1920s, in lieu of numbering its highways, Idaho had a system of lettered Sampson Trails. [2] They were marked by businessman Charles B. Sampson of Boise at no expense to the state, using orange-colored shields. [3] By 1929, the trails system had included 6,500 miles (10,500 km) of marked highways that covered most of the state. [4]
The paired highways continue south along the side of a hill and cross into Canyon County northeast of Notus. [7] [8] The freeway enters the Treasure Valley, which also constitutes much of the Boise metropolitan area, near the outskirts of Caldwell and intersects State Highway 44 (SH-44), which continues east to Middleton and Eagle.
Highway 44 continues east through Eagle and intersects with State Highway 55. From Eagle eastward, the highway is also known as State Street and continues toward Boise. The highway turns southward onto Glenwood Street in Garden City where it continues for approximately 1.3 miles (2.1 km) before ending at Chinden Boulevard (US-20/US-26). [2]
As the two routes approach Boise, they intersect three state highways: State Highway 16 (SH-16), SH-55 on the Eagle–Boise city line, and SH-44 in Garden City. In Boise, as US-26 and US-20 merge eastward onto I-184, the Interstate designation ends there but the freeway ends in about 0.75 miles (1.21 km).
The highway continues north through Jackass Gulch and descends over 500 vertical feet (150 m) on the Freezeout Grade into the Emmett Valley. The highway then curves westward for a short distance, where it terminates at the junction with State Highway 52 just south of the Emmett city limits. [2]
