Nature Has Lavished Her
Southern Oregon, which is known aR the Rogue
river valley, and the Klamath Lakes eountrV,
has more to otfer the visitor than any other
section of the Pacific coast for those that love
the great out doors. We have mountains, lakes,
rushing streams, and wonderful highways, and
these lakes and streams abound with fish, and
our forests abound with game and game birds
just as they did years ago.
For .a visitor coming into OregorrTrom Cal­
ifornia, as they start down the Siskiyou moun­
tains, after crossing the state line, they get
their first view of this beautiful Rogue River
Valley.
Ashland is the first stop, and is so beau­
tiful that tjie visitor regrets to have to leave,
but they must see all of this wonderful land.
Ashland has hotels for all clashes of travelers,
and an auto park for those who .wish to camp,
and Lithia auto park is by far the most beau­
tiful of any other. Here a person can drink
their fill of Lithia water, which is known the
world over, and camp alongside of a dashing

A plunge in the'N ntatorium , which is fill­
ed with mineral water, will put new life in any
person, also the outdoor plunge àt .Jackson Hot
Springs, where the w ater domes out of the earth
nt a temjwMture of about seventy-five degrees.
Cabins for rent to tbfc traveler can also he
had at Jackson Hot Springs, which are three
miles north of the bity,
t
Next we? go north over the Pacific H igh­
way for forty five miles to the City of Grants
Pass. There you leave the highway and travel
south west to the Oregon Caves, a distance of
forty pine miles from Grants Pass. A very
good résort where the visitor can receive all
the comforts, and a two hour trip through the
caves, having every wonde^ explained by a
’guide, is some thing long to be remembered.
Back to Grants Pass and on down the
Pacific highway to 'th e delightful city of Med­
ford, which is the largest city in Southern Ore-

gon, and there ‘the stranger tarns to the north­
east on tho C rater Lake highway and for eighty
live miles thé thrilled visitor wishes they had
many more eyes so as to ho able to see all the
beauty spots with out missing a single one.
But when they arrive on the brink of C rater
Lake all sense of reasoning is lost, Tor here a
¿sight never before dreamed of is presented. It
is tnw th at this is hi a class all by its self for
there is only one C rater Lake in thé world
and lyre it is in Southern Oregon. A thous­
and feet above the water, looking down into
th at blue water, a color th at no artist has been
able to reproduce, and as you stand there view­
ing this sight, the colors change, and the over­
come person wonders if they are truly on this
earth, or in the great beyond.
la k e , with Mt. P itt and Mt. Shasta showing
their snow covered m antles far up into the
clouds. Klamath Falls is a Railroad center, and
a snwiinll city, some of the largest mills in the
west are located there.
I t is folly to try to describe the beauties of
C rater Lake, all visitors must see its wonders
and beauty for themselves.
The drive from Klamath Falls hack to
Ashland, on the Pacific Highway is so differ­
ent from any other drive we have taken. For
miles the highway is cut through giant pine,
and the largest stand of yellow pine in the
entire world is along this highway. In cross­
ing the Cascade Mountains on this drive a t one
time you are a mile high, and ns the visitor
winds his way out from among the forest, all
at once it looks as though he had reached the
end of the trail, and is looking down two thous­
and feet into the valley of the Rogite, and there
nestled nt the very foot of the mountains is
the city of Ashland, more beautiful than from
our first view a week before from another Iiigh-
Next we go south to Klamath Falls, over
The Dalles-Califomia highway, a distance of
sixty-five miles. For twenty miles of this d ist­
ance you drive along th e’ shores of Klamath
All California, Oregon, and Washington
1 people come to Southern Oregon and en­
its beauties with us.
