On The Trail.
A trip across the W. V. & C. M. W.
road better known as t he Lebanon
route, is a jaunt long to be remembered. '
One leaves the last settlement coining1
west at Sisters postoflce, a drive over a
smooth good track mostly down a Bee
tle incline brought us to the toll gate
and btation uuder charge of VV. R.
Booth where one recieves a cordial hos
pitality that cheers the weary traveler?.
Only two or three wagons had crossed
the mountains at that time (July lj.
Six droves of loo e horses had crossed
westward and here we met John Todd,
a pioneer cuttle king of Cook county, en
route home from Stayton, having "
brought 42 hoad of Hereford cattla
through the snow. Mr. T. says that in
his 44 years of cattle trade the highest
price received for cuttle was $83.00 per
head for four yi'ur old steers and the
cheapest purchased by htm was 28
head of mixed cattle lrom yearlings to
four year old steers and cows at $9.50
each. A Mr, Miller, wife and five child
ren en reute from Pe. dleton to Eugene
and Andrew Noble, wife and three
children of Crook county, en route to
Sweet Home, were camped here and we
went into executive meeting of the waya
and means committee to canvass the
probability of getting through the snow
a unanimous resolution was passwl t
make the start at fottru'clock next morn
ing, a climb of four miles brought us to
the snow line. We found the first three
miles fiom one to six feet deep but hard
and firm ami our horses scarcely left a
foot print or our wagons a track on ita
white bosoms, the rays of the morning;
sun soon softened it through and the
hori-es begin to sink deeper in the snow
with every rod traversed. 'At length Mr.
Miller's wagon sank to the bed in the
snow we had t double up our horsa
power and pull him out.
After eight miles of snow (and I ant
ceitain if James W. Watson had ever
previously wallowed through that last
four miles he would never have written
his famous pot-m "Beautiful (?) Snow").
We came to the summit of Sand moun
tain and there was no moro snow down
to risn Lane n au n lour nines, out we
had to cross a swift mountain stream In
the lava beds that came up over our
buggy bed, ran over the dash board and
nearly swamped us. It looked like bad
medicine to take. Ahead was the roar
ing river, behind w;s the walls of t.now.
We air'.ved at Fish Lake, a famous
summer resort where fish abound iralore.
We sampled thee lake trout and pro
nounced them fit for an epicure. Mr.
Miller's team was worn out bo he stopped
here for a day or two to recuperate
while Mr, Noble, a veteran mountaineer
and your reporter in company with R.
D. Wright hit the trail. Thwe is two
summits on the W. V. & C. M. W. na I
between Lst prairie and the Western
summit. We had three miles of rotten
snow that was very dilflcnlt, around the
pine trees the snow had melted away
leaving a perpendicular circular wall of
snow often ten fret deep, every moment
we expected our equine friends to dron
nut of sight. As wo toiled through the
snow a faint blue fringe of smoke greet
ed our vhion and as we emerged from
the green forest into vast helt of dead
timber we ran up pgalnst a typical
inountiiin fire on a south hill side, th
road here was graded and a fierce wind
caused the hungry flames to leap clear
across our roadway, fragments of burn
ing bark were dropping all around us.
The committee on highways and byways
then went into speci il session and de
cided that discretion was the tiettef
part of valor so v.e executed a flank
movement and beat a retreat.
Later in the evening the wind died
down and afier throughly saturating our
clothing and throwing wet robes ovet
our horses we made a rush for the west
through fire and smoke, in a swift gallop
we dashed safely throuich and soon bade
adieu to snow drifts at the summit of
Seven Mile Hill d jwn which we gaily
flew with smoking brakes. At the foot
of the mountain and sixteen miles frou
Fish lake arose the vine clad rustic walls
of the renowned "Mountain House"
presided over by Mr. and Mrs. Kelso,
ideal host and hostess.
Four miles futher down the Santiam
we came to Upper Soda springs and
Garrison P. O. People from all over
the Willamette valley and the sage
brush empire flock here to spend the
sultry summer weeks of dog days. It
would be hard to find n more desirable
haven, for here is that lodge in a vast
wilderness that boundless coutinuity of
shade where rumors of oppression and.
deceit of successful or unsuccessful ware
might never reach us more, and best
news of all to the sportive minded
waters of the Santiam fairly sparkle with
the abundance of that prince of the
finny tribe, the mountain trout.
Twenty-seven miles more brings ue
to Sweet House where we met a number
of Ex-Oregon City citizens amongst
whom we can mentioji Mr. and Mrs. H.
Green, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Rands
well known in Oregon City and where
we helped uphold the old eagle's weary
pinions. E. A.
