8 THE STjyDAY OKEGOyiAy, PORTLAND, SEPTEMBER 5, 1909. O. C YOCUM, THE PIONEER MOUNTAIN GUIDE, CHATS OF THE 23 YEARS HE HAS SPENT ON MOUNT HOOD , -V i tj? ' f' w ' - "J""' Tffi: Wizsof JAJzry .v -.. i '.'V - r 4' : I JPjz.cfxAizETTCJ: 'Xacrj:Hftzf?r. ywjte Arz? T HIS home, the Mountain View Hotel, Government Camp, at the foot of Mount Hood, which he loves to well and knows so much about, O. C. Tocum, .the oldest mountain guide In Oregon and a well-known pioneer, lives in retirement, but Is still active and full of enthusiasm. Those who go to Mount Hood and fall to spend at least two hours with Mr. Tocum will miss half the pleasure of the trip and lose an op portunity of securing; accurate Informa tion. Mr. Tocum Is the veteran mountain fuide, sjid has justly earned the title by . parties to the summit of Mount Hood. During; his long experience as guide Mr. Tocum never met with an accident, al thoi:h he has been through perilous and thrilling experiences, always coming out safely with the lives entrusted to his care, because of his almost unerring Judgement and familiarity with the "freaks" of Mount Hood. Full o the love of the wild mountains and full of enthusiasm for the preservation of the native beauty cf the Cascade Range, Mr. Tocum Is one of the most Interesting men to talk with on his favorite theme. To him Mount Hood is like an open book, which he reads as plainly as one does the printed page. Mr. Tocum came to Oregon In 1S51 and resided In Portland for a number of years. He was the official photographer of the O. R. 4 N. Company in its earlier history. 'and afterwards conducted a gal lery in Portland. Failing In health he moved to Government Camp over 17 years ago. although he had rambled over Mount Hood and other prominent peaks I of the Cascades years before. Aftr moving to Mount Hood he became the official guide until about five years ago, when he relinquished that duty to others. Until this year, when he secured EL Coal man and S. C Miles, however, the duty of guiding parties to the summit of Mount Hood was not performed entirely satisfactorily since ha was compelled to retires. "I do not think any men , should un dertake to assume the responsibility of guiding parties of men and women to the summit of Mount Hood." declared the veteran. In an Interview last week, until he has shown that he has the ex perience, knows the mountain and Ha eccentricities and has a license showing possession of these qualifications. When a C'jlde starts np the mountain with a company of men and women their lives are In his band. He Is responsible for their safety. He ought to be a man of sound judgment, quick to see the hidden dangers that beset the steep pathway. Any man has the right to risk his own. life and climb the mountain without a guide, but I hold that no man has the right to take the llvs of others In his care until he Is qualified to do so. "I have never felt safe since I quit guiding parties up the mountain until I secured Mr. Coalman, and now I can rest In perfect confidence In his Judg ment. Hia assistant, Mr. Miles, is also a capable man. Kven boys have taken parties up Mount Hood, but the fact that they met with no accident was mere good fortune, for only the experienced man can see the dareTer and provide against It. The inexperienced man will not see the crevasses hidden under the snow fields and will lead his party over them and into the very Jaws of death. "I have had some varied experiences on the mountain. A guide must main tain perfect discipline among the pasty he Is directing. Every Individual must obey his word as implicitly as the com mand of a General. He leads a string of men and women along the very edge of a crevassa of which they are wholly unconscious and cannot soe. A step to one side may mean a plunge into a crevasse of unknown depth. The experi enced mountain guide knows the danger and how to avoid it. but the reckless man and the novice sees no danger. I remember that I was taking a large company up the snowfield several years ago. They would not submit to control. They would not obey orders, but would wander about the snowfield. walking over unknown dangers. Finally, as we neared Crater Rock, where, as everyone knows, there are dangers from rolling bowlders ajid, hidden crevasses, I wheeled the party Wonderful Lake in Cavern" of Ice Is Described by Veteran Mountaineer, Who Once Tried to ' 'V- f at ' te Tor. round and took them back down the snowfield to a point of safety and dis missed them. When I had done this they protested and promised to submit to any orders, but I refused to take them up the mountain, for the reason that I could not afford to run the risk of accident through their recklessness." Mr. Yocum gave a thrilling account of his experience in trying to get a photo graph of the interior of the lake shed, which, he says, exists between Crater Rock and the main peak. Many years ago there was an open lake between Crater Rock and tha main peak, but this is now covered with Ice and snow. Mr. Yocum ascertained, several years ago, that this lake existed under the great mass of snow and ice. He discovered a way to enter the silent Ice chamber, where the lake existed. He decided to get a photograph of the lake, and, tak ing hia camera and flashlights, went, with a party, to the entrance of the cavern. "Knowing the danger," said Mr. To cum. "I left the party outside while I went under the entrance to the cavern." It was well I did, for otherwise none of us would have got back. The scene In the cavern was tnrilling. There was the beautiful lake of clear mountain snow water. Above was the vast ice dome, supported by the icy columns. In all my mountain experience it was the most wonderful scene I had ever witnessed. "I fixed the camera and prepared to set off the flashlight, when I suddenly be came dlrxy and atagrered forward, al most plunging Into the lake. Realizing that I was being overcome by the gases of the cavern, I managed to stagger to j the entrance, where I met my friends coming in arter me, ana wnere j. xeii, unconscious, and remained In that con dition for half an hour before I' fully re covered. My camera had been left In the cavern, but I held my breath long enough to rush In and take It out. It was a great disappointment to ma that I failed to get the picture. The lake is still there, and the accumulation of Ice and snow may slide down and ex pose it once more at the end of the pres ent glacl.l period. This may make It Impossible to get to the summit by way of Crater Rock. "I want to live to see Mount Hood and Its surroundings made a National Park. The natural beauty of Mount Hood and its surroundings is an asset to Oregon, whose real value is not fully appreciated at present. No effort should be spared to have this region made a National Park. Then we could exclude the sheep men and others who set out fires and destroy the vast wealth in timber and water resources that have their sheds In this district. In Paradise Park, on the western foot of Mount Hood, at present there art 4CK head of sheep, which will eat and destroy the wonderful grasses and the great variety of wild flowers and shrubbery, which grow nowhere else in -. sir- - : - - - "J-". v.. rit . t ,fl sT . IH PI v i1 , . . 1T - . y tlsl 'v ' J 5 nts-r majdjS ran. tm - the world. I' hope :hat the citizens of Portland will realize the importance of preserving the present forests at Mount Hood by making it the center of a great National Park. "I must say that the. present system of preserving the forests around here is most inefficient. The trouble with the forest ranger system in this territory has been that when a superintendent is par ticularly efficient and requires the rang ers to do their work an underground In fluence causes that superintendent to be displaced. We can never have effective protection of our mountain forests until the present system is completely changed so that an able and experienced man Is safe in his position. An example of the badness of the forest ranger system was the displacement of Adolf Ashoff a few years ago. No better man waa ever em ployed by the Government for ie pro tection of the forests in this reserve than Mr. Ashoff. and he was thrown out be cause he required the forest rangers to do their work effectively. "The rangers think they have nothing to do but pick huckleberries, hunt and fish. I have seen these men at work and knew their methods. I have called their attention to fires In the mountains which at first were small, but which aft erwards spread over hundreds of acres of Umber land. These could have been stopped at the tart. but they paid no attention to my warnings. We need a system that will require the forest rang ers to do their full duty. There Is too great risk to entrust the protection of the forests to men who know nothing about Sunday Services BAPTIST, the White Temple, corner Twelfth ylor streets Rev. J. .

By improving the system of forest protection, creating a National park of Mount Hood and lis Immediate surroundings, we can keep out the sheep and the fires and enable this vast district to reforest Itself, which It is now doing as fast as nature can work." Ascents of Mount Hood this year us ually have been made easily under the charge of Mr. Coalman, who is considered the best guide, with the exception of Mr. Yocum, who was ever at Mount Hood. Mr. Coalman Is a remarkable man. Recently he left Government Camp with a companion in the morning. They reached the top at about 10 A. M. and then slid down to Cloud Cap Inn, where Mr. Coalman took his noon meal. Alone he climbed Mount Hood in the afternoon from the hotel and returned to Govern ment Camp to eat his dinner. "However, to make the climb popular better provision must be made at the timber line. At present parties going up the mountain are taken to the 'timber line, where there is a smal ltent In which few people can rest for the climb the following morning, the start being made at 3 A. M. Two large tents, or cabins, are needed where people may remain the night before climbing the mountain end the night following. At present on returning from a climb to the summit there Is the long waik of four miles from the timber line to Government Camp, which, after the mountain climb, is too exacting. These provisions are to be made before another year." ' in City Churches I the . church Rev. A. B. Mlnaker, pastor. Services. 10:3O A. M. and 7:30 P.

Q Among the few tilings that will stand rep etition, and which grows in esteem with . each experience, is a visit to The Oaks. 9 There is always some new beauty to be discovered in the magnificent park or its environments, and there is always some form of amusement provided that had been overlooked, or which had been installed be tween visits. Q The manager of a popular park elsewhere on the Coast made the remark when on a recent visit to The Oaks, "You have a loca tion that is not approached in beauty by any I have seen and I think I've seen them all." That's expert testimony. Q Here in Portland we are so accustomed to beautiful scenery and handsomely embel lished grounds that we pick out the best to show to our visitors from less favored parts of the country. Thousands of these visitors are brought to The Oaks. That fact has only one explanation. Q In such surroundings is it any wonder that Donatelli's band seems inspired? Is- it any wonder that the "boardwalk" has become as famous in Portland as its prototype is at Atlantic City? Is it any wonder that people sound the praises of Portland's great amuse ment park? J Now, Monday, this beautiful park is to be given over for the entertainment of Oregon's future citizens the public school children. All sorts of special features are to be pro vided for the amusement of the little people ; but they are not content to have everything done for them, for under the direction of Professor Eingler they propose to take a hand in the carnival themselves. 9 There are to be evolutions gone through with, marches, Maypole and other pretty dances, and songs by the class. That should attract a host of big people, for what is so attractive and what strikes a more re sponsive chord than the sight of children in gleeful play? 9 The Oaks has become the fashion, and it will be made better and better as time goes on. preach at 11 A.
