"The worst stretch, of road we encoun- tered was a toll road, two miles In length, on the Oregon side of the Biskl vmi summit. Next to this the , worst road traveled was In the Pitt river coun try, wher a stretch of about 40 miles of bare rock wore the tires down and was very rough oh-the auto. At Sis- son we rot lost on a iuiu oer roaa lu wandered 60 miles out of the direct road. There were many crossroads and we could not tell which -was the tight one In the dark. Another thing that de layed us was a strong neaa wind en- countered the. entire length of the Sac ramento valley, -wa tnen wastea quite a while In each town waking people up so as to secure directions. We reached Hornbrook at I o'clock and were there half an hour before we succeeded In waking the station agent Many roads wera deep with mud and none were In rery good shape. I am satisfied we could make the trip a second time with in the original schedule.
