Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; current rendered profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.

The current reference profile documents a two-action range from Big Hole on August 9 through Camas Meadows on August 20, 1877. The inherited record contains only the August 20 Idaho endpoint. Canonical metadata preserves the current combined action range while the inherited single-date and single-place rendering remains intact.
