CURTIS WRITES OF
JOSEPHINE CAVES
(William K. Curlii;.)
Craier Lake is not the only great
natural wiunler in this locality. Tlieiu
ale sfvenil menic iuatureH within u
sliori ilistniice I nun Ashlnuil llm
iieivliiioriiiK' towns, that uro pructi
1'iilly unknown to the world, but art
ipiiln as iiitoi'i.sliii iih those which
tliousaiiils of AiiiencuiiH every, yeur
cross llm ocean to see. On the boun
dary Ipii) between Oregon mnl Cali
loi iiia, not far I rum llm thriving city
ol Ashland, in a group ol wonderful
"iivcriin, in a mountain of marble,
whit h are said In. surpass Mammoth
Save, lairuy Caves and other great
caverns as much as the moutilufiis
ot the coast ranges surpass those of
Kentucky mnl Virginia.
These mailili! grottoes, for they are
inure like grottoes than eaves, are
not newly discovered. They have been
known ever since the first white set
tlers enme into this country, and were
first reported by Klijah Davidson, u
hunter mid trnpcr, who trailed u
vvhilii face bear into them one day.
.loaiiuiii Murietla, an outlaw mid ent
ile theif, bid his stolen stock in the
euvi'H, and made them his deadquur
lers uway back in the '(ids. A white
man mid a Chiuamau were murdered
there in the early '70s, and, indeed, it
may lie said that these great wonders
have always been known, but the lit
tle knowledge we have of them has
filtered out through the dense Oregon
forests from hunters, prospectors and
adventurers of various degrees of
voracity.
The caves are very difficult to
reach; there is no road, only a bridle
trail; they are 50 miles from a rail
road track, (i"i miles from a hotel,
and whoever goes there must take a
full camping outfit, and expect to
rough it in genuine frontier fashion
for a week or more. It is possible
to get im outfit at A-dilaud or Med
foril. or at any one of several sta
tions along the Southern Pacific rail
way, and scleral young men in the
' ieiuity who' have tniiile the trip mi
nually for several years, can be cm
ployed as guides.
The expense of an expedition will,
of course, depend entirely upon the
character of the outfit, hut four or
five pack horses, n couple of tentns
ami provisions for n week's stay need
not cost n great deal of money.
Joaquin Miller, "the poet of the
Sierras," made the trip this summer,
nml wrote an article about the caves
for the Sunset Magazine of San
I'rmicis.'o. I believe lie is (he only
man who has ever attempted a des
cription, and. while his rhapsodies
concerning the scenery and the won
derful beauty of the eaves are ad
mirable, the render is apt to wish that
he hud given a little more practical
information. INt may be gathered
from this article that there are 500
or more dap.zlninc chambers in a mar
