Itinerary
June 29 Crooked R., 3400 ft., at mouth of Bear Cr.,
Crook Co., Oregon.
After breaking camp at Delaney,
about 8:00 A.M. we traveled to
Klamath Falls, Ore. for breakfast. From
there we continued on to Bend,
Ore. stopping but briefly for
refreshment. At Redmond we
turned east to Pineville where
we stopped for gasoline and
then traveled some twenty
mi. in a S.E direction until
we encountered the Crooked R.
We then turned downstream
and pitched camp at the junction
of the Crooked R. and Bear Cr.
The country traveled through
was for the most part timbered
except for areas around Doris and
Klamath Falls where logging
operations had cleared the land.
The forest of yellow pine, douglas
fir, silver fir and incense cedar
around Klamath Falls gave way
to an almost continuous stand
of lodge-pole pine on the
north slope of the divide
