6A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL January 13, 2016 SOUTH LANE COUNTY FIRE & RESCUE c.g. Daytripper The Only Emergency Medical Transport Service in South Lane County For Odell, an old friend I ’d like to tell you about one of my favorite places on Earth. In the decade that my wife and I have lived in this area, we’ve discovered certain places that have made and continue to make a deeper impact, places where an inspired, natural and zestful life seems just that much easier to grasp, and where it’s remarkably easy to be the hu- mans we like to think we’d be if forever freed from society’s relentless grind. Over the weekend, we were fortunate enough to return to such a place, to the splendor that is Odell Lake and a small cabin from which to take in the Cascade Mountains’ majesty. We’ve been coming to Odell — a large, deep and often impos- sibly clear mountain lake in an area that’s rife with them — for years, and with each visit, the area offers more of its secrets while simultaneously refusing to change much with the march- ing of time. Late Friday, we arrived in time to watch a bald eagle rifl e overhead above the resort parking lot, close enough to see the lake water dripping from the fi sh that still wriggled in the bird’s powerful talons. A moment passed as we each took a deep, soul-cleansing breath of fresh mountain air before load- ing our gear onto sleds for the walk up to our cabin (the only way to bring much to the cabins in the wintertime, as the roads up the hill behind the resort are mostly impassible in the snow). A lake for all seasons Our fi rst visit to Odell Lake came in the summertime, and I was immediately overcome by the scenery, as if someone had taken pains to create the ideal mountain lake as I’d envisioned it as a teenager from the all-too- fl at Midwest. I had also imme- diately regretted not bringing a fi shing rod. At the resort lodge, I’d heard about the world-class fi shing for lake or Mackinaw trout — behemoth predators that stalk the lake’s depths — and Kokanee, a species of land- locked salmon. Lacking a boat to get at these larger fi sh, however, I was downhearted until the attendant at the Lodge’s front desk told me one of the lake’s secrets. That evening, I rented a basic rod-and-reel combo, purchased a cup of worms and some light tackle and got to bed, anxious for morning. Just after daylight, I walked past the oft-fi shed dock down the bank a ways, casting a worm into the fi rst sandy patch on the lake bottom even as a sleek, fat rainbow trout cruised the shal- lows. Breathlessly I watched through the crystal-clear water as the fi sh circled once, twice, three times before nabbing my worm and exploding through Community Public Education: • CPR/AED • Heart Attack Recognition • Fall Prevention • Stroke Prevention • Fire Prevention • Fire Extinguishers • Fire-Med Membership Call 541-942-4493 for info.

I’d hook several more rainbows that day, watch- ing the approach of each to the hook, before the afternoon wind picked up, kicking boaters off the water and signaling that it was literally time to go take a hike. Years later, the opportunity to catch and keep feisty, beautiful and delicious native trout still serves as the unquestioned high- light of a summer trip to Odell Lake. Winter paradise Over the weekend, of course, the lake offered a different kind of scene, its waters a placid steel gray against a backdrop of sev- eral feet of snow. After settling into our cabin, we piled layers of clothing onto our four-year old and headed out into the powder. I’ve never seen anyone eat so much snow in my life; in fact, I didn’t think it was possible to be so enamored of munching Please see ODELL, Page 11A Grants for historic properties, museums, cemeteries and archaeology projects available H istoric properties and ar- chaeology projects are currently being sought by Or- egon’s State Historic Preserva- tion Offi ce for grant funding of up to $20,000 in matching funds for preservation projects.
