Pioneer Cemetery offers
lunch on Memorial Day
On Memorial Day, May 29,
this year’s Pioneer Heritage
Day at the Deadwood Pioneer
Cemetary will be bigger and
better than ever. Starting at
noon with lunch, there will be
free hot dogs, chili and drinks,
and the public is welcome to
contribute potluck items such
as desserts or sides if desired.
Enjoy old-time music by
Guthrie. After lunch, there will
be displays, items for sale,
kids games and activities, and
a living history presentation by
Civil War expert Dave
Burkett.
Afterward, join in bringing
together folk history and mod-
ern technology by starting a
geocache and learning GPS
use. Bring your own GPS
device or use one that can be
provided.
Try to win the pot at a GPS
Poker Run, learn how to clean
historic headstones, and give
your opinion on current plans
for a log-style gazebo, military
museum, landscaping and ash
garden.
Bring a friend and a chair,
and maybe a story or some-
thing to share.
Deadwood
Pioneer
Cemetery is located 13 miles
east of Mapleton on Highway
36. Turn north on Deadwood
Creek Road and take an imme-
diate right on the gravel drive.
Siuslaw Watershed
Council to discuss LiDAR
The Siuslaw Watershed
Council (SWC) May general
meeting will be Wednesday,
May 31, at Big Bear Camp,
located near Walton.
The meeting will start at
6:30 p.m.
Camp hosts Hal and Tonia
have invited SWC to meet at
the Retreat Center, tucked
away up the Chickahominy.
To get there, take Highway
126 and, just west of the
Walton Store, turn on to
Nelson Mountain Road. From
there, proceed 4 1/2 miles to
the Big Bear Camp Retreat
Center sign on the left.
Continue 1 mile to Big Bear
Camp.
“LiDAR and Landslides in
the Siuslaw Watershed,” is the
topic being given by Kami
Ellingson,
Watershed
Program Manager, Siuslaw
National Forest.
Historically,
landslides
were identified and monitored
using 1:24,000 aerial photog-
raphy. In 1996, the state of
Oregon funded an unprece-
dented, ground-based land-
slide study following a 100-
year flood event.
This study provided valu-
able information to land man-
agers, land owners and
municipalities about the ori-
gin, prevalence, size, travel
distances of debris torrents
and land management influ-
ence on landslides in the coast
range of Oregon.
Now,
LiDAR
(Light
Detecting and Ranging) cov-
erage informs land manage-
ment. LiDAR allows land
managers to remove the vege-
tation and look directly at the
earth’s surface.
