THE TILLER ROUTK
Is tlie Most Feasihle, Says the
ltiikUu Tribune
The following reasons are present
ed by a correspondent from Tiller In
an article urging the feasibility of the
proposed route. for the Pacific high
way via that point, instead of follow
ing the old stage road through Can
yon Creek canyon.
It is desired to call the attention
of the state at large, to the practic
ality and feasibility of the South
Umpqua-Elk Creek route, via Tiller,
to Crater Lake, MedforU, Ashland
and all California points.
A glance at the map will show this
to be a natural topographical route
with a maximum grade of less than
eight per cent. In fact it is a water
grade the entire distance, and unlike
any other route now or to be pro
posed, it is not a matter of one heart
breaking, engine racking climb, up
one hill after another, merely for the
pleasure of going down the other side.'
On the contrary there is but one hill
to climb on the South Umpqua-Elk
Creek route.
Gegginning at either Roseburg,
Myrtle Creek or Riddle you have an
almost imperceptible up-grade until
you reach the divide that separates
the hel waters of Elk Creek on the
Douglas county side from those of
Trail Creek on the Jackson county ;
side. From this saddle to the Rogue
River at Trail, in Jackson county, is
a gradual descent, at no time exceed
ing the maximum up-grade on the'
Douglas county side. I
So much for the question of grades'
which though important in them-;
selves are by no means everything to 1
be taken into consideration when
the expenditure of hundreds of thous
ands of dollars, as contemplated in
the construction of a permanent high
way, as distance to be travelled and
scenic beauty play a very important
part in the choice of routes selected!
by tourists. In the matter of 'diB-j
tance It is only necessary to compare j
the 95 miles up and down grade
route from .Myrtle Creek to Medford!
via the Cow Creek route, with the
65 miles water grade route via Tiller
between the same pointsf. with Its
consequent saving of 40 mileB, to
settle this phase of the question for
ever. Nothing In all the West can com
pare with the scenic grandeur and
wonderful 'plctureaqueneBs of this
route, presenting as it does an ever
changing panorama of fertile valleys,
verdure-covered foothills and snow
capped peaks, Interspersed with rush
ing rivers of pure, Ice cold waters
the hills abounding with game of
every kind and the waters with the
gamest trout that ever took a fly In i
fact making it the place that manyl
dream of but seen nownere else
a sportsman's paradise.
To sum it all up, the South Umpqua-Elk.
Creek route has the advant
age of a water grade, a saving of 40
miles In distance, and scenic beauty,
in addition to others too numerous to
mention.
