Typically routes in the US are done west to east and south to north, we all know that. While that connected segment is somewhat N-S, the whole trail is an W-E route and therefore this connected route should run from its western end just east of the Montana border
Gotcha, thanks.
(Lewis & Clark and all; one would think I could have figured that out...)to its eastern one at the Kansas border
I asked because I'm working on a
datacheck for border labels. So in this case, on ne.lctrl, KS/NE -> NE/KS.
(where the signed routes don't line up).
*slow clap*I guess Nebraska wanted to keep their side on numbered routes, while Kansas wanted to keep theirs closer to the river & the explorers' actual route, and had a numbered route available? *Shrug.*

The ConnectedRoute link in the HB did a good job of showing this.
The route on the other side of the Missouri has been turned around, seen by border labels being the wrong way around, giving an east to west route. That's the one that needs fixing.

IA,SD,MT: flip point order, keep border labels
ND: flip point order, SD/ND -> ND/SD, MT/ND stays as-is.
