October 3, 1935 Left Berkeley
7:11 last event
On way East via "north-west."
6:30 a.m. - At Klamath Falls, Oregon: country
looks different from what I expected:
high hills rise rather steeply all
about, save to south toward "lake" -
which I can't see. Altitude at
Station: 4105 feet. Hills brown-yellow
grassy, with scattering very small yellow
pines and (Othir?) junipers. The
Town surprisingly extensive, scatter
up hillsides. Brewer Blackbirds
around station; also California Gulls.
Later: flock of 125+ gulls on foot-ball
field near a school.
Earlier: Wake up somewhere near
McDoel, Calif. Terrain extensively
level, but with massive hills
rising abruptly from the plain;
junipers and sage-brush seem
to predominate. As we skirted
west side of town "Lake" (no water)
before sunrise, large flocks of birds
continually going south overhead.
