[Cdt-l] CDT markers

[Jim and_or Ginny Owen]

When we hiked in 2006 the trail was marked in that section out to Route 9.  We have heard that the trail is now marked up to (or past) Lordsburg.  Last spring we drove past that area and stopped to check out the trail near Granite Pass.  We noted that they had relocated the trail away from the water source near the highway but kept both old and new markers in placearound Granite Pass.  The route in 2006 followed jeep roads so markers were fairly far apart, but they were there.

Yesterday I just finished the first section from Crazy Crook to Highway 81. I noted that the CDT was well marked thru to the end of Sheridan Canyon, but after the junction with the access road at the 'bear box' water cache I could NOT find any CDT signs. Am I correct in noting that the 'trail' is either cross country on your own or along the dirt roads? On the other end I came across CDT signs from highway 81 leading south toward the dirt road. 
 
Question: am I correct in assuming that the CDT/BLM has not yet made a trail along the foothills from 81 to Sheridan Can
