The blacktop pavement ended just east of Garden Valley and resumed at Lowman.
On the old AAA map that I used in 1991, the Garden Valley to Lowman stretch is a thin black line, different from the road to the east.
I remember it largely because it was detail that I missed on the map. It wasn't bad, especially in a pickup. The full day's drive was from Stanley to Joseph via Oxbow and F39. And part of a 8 day drive from Chicago.
In a more recent Idaho loop, May/June 2008, it was all paved with nice camping and hot springs options.
