IL-34 splits with IL-145 south of Harrisburg:

The next 5 days:
February 6: Post a junction of a route ending in 4 and a route ending in 6, in your state.
February 7: Post a junction of a route ending in 4 and a route ending in 7, in your state.
February 8: Post a junction of a route ending in 4 and a route ending in 8, in your state.
February 9: Post a junction of a route ending in 4 and a route ending in 9, in your state.
February 10: Post a junction of a route ending in 5 and another route ending in 5, in your state.

Note that the rows on the chart will get shorter; that is, the 5s will only last for 5 days, the 6s will last for 4 days, and the 7s will last for 3 days. Then it's only 8-8, 8-9, and 9-9 left. Once that's done, the game will pause, and the second season will begin on March 1. The second season will be the same as the first, but we will focus on the tens digit of the route number rather than the last digit.  In other words, when Season 2 calls for the digits of 1 and 8, you'll need to find a route with a 1 in the tens place and a route with an 8 in the tens place, like 17-82 or 113-185.

Well it has been a 4 and 6 for years according to signage on I-84.  :-D

Alas, Oregon has no 4-8 junctions of signed routes. Historically, there was at least one, but OR 54 and US 28 disappeared from the map a long time ago.

So I was planning on being sketchy and go with the junction of OR 18 and Lafayette Highway #154 (OR 233 at that junction).  But I decided that took things too far.

However, since no one seems to be posting Idaho pics here, I'll just head over to our neighbor and give you BL-84 and ID 78 in Hammett:
