Old "Sac" Trail...?
Does anyone know, is this Chicago Road, fka the "Sauk Trail," the same as the "Old Sac Trail"? There is a marker for the Old Sac Trail, placed in 1916 on what is now Lincolnway in Valparaiso, Indiana. Sounds from the article like the Chicago Road / Sauk Trail may have followed what is now US 12, which lies a bit to the north of Valparaiso. Xenophon777 15:33, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

---In my neck of the woods, Sauk Trail enters Illinois from Indiana at Dyer, sharing the same road as US 30/Lincoln Highway. It is a certainty that parts of the Lincoln Highway in northwest Indiana were also parts of the Sauk Trail. At the Indiana/Illinois border, the Sauk Trail and Lincoln Highway split, and then run parallel with one another with the Sauk Trail being about 2.5 miles south of US 30/Lincoln Highway. Of course this is also well south of US 12. Either there is an error in this article, or there was more than one Sauk Trail. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)
