Sandstone trail?

In reading through the road decommissioning Environmental Assessment, I found two references to the Sandstone trail.  I've never heard of it nor do I see it listed anywhere as an official trail.  The EA refers to it in one instance as Trail #542 and later as #543.  The Trail Advocates trail index shows the Skookum Lake trail as #542 and Thunder Mtn trail as #543. 

Is there, or was there, such a thing as the Sandstone trail?  It was addressed in the EA in relation to Roads 4620, 6330 and 6341, all of which were listed as providing access.  The EA implies that this is an existing trail.

Trail names show up on the 56-57(?) topos. The ones with all the mistakes.

The name sounds familiar but I can't place it. I thought it may have been the east end of Cold Springs but the roads don't work for that.

Only other would have been the one from Tom's Meadows to the Dickies.

Sometimes the archeologists use different names, like Pine Marten Trail, which is Old Skyline as far as I can tell. Based on some old studies, etc., but not ever common names.
