Robbel has driven the car
23,000 miles across the coun-
try, participating in shows.
“The DeSotos were ahead
of their time with the design,”
he said.
After the show, Robbel
attended the Durkee Steak
feed at the Quail Ridge Golf
Course. The menu for the
event, which moved from
Durkee to Baker City many
years ago, included a steak,
potatoes, vegetables and pan
fried bread. Like the cars,
the bread is another anach-
ronism. According to rancher
Dick Kirby, it’s how the cow-
boys used to make bread.
The recipe for the bread
is a Kirby family secret, but
what to do with the mix
is not. Water is added to
the mix and the dough is
kneaded until it reaches an

appropriate consistency and
then placed into a skillet.
What’s important is to put
a hole in the middle of the
dough.
“The hole let’s the bad
gasses out,” Kirby said, and
keeps the bread from rising.
At the steak feed, the skil-
lets were placed on railroad
tracks that stretched over a
fi re-fi lled trench. Once the
boot of the bread was cooked,
the skillets were placed into
the fi re until the bread was
done.
As the sun set, the drivers
of the cars participated in a
cruise through downtown
Baker City.
“We used to call it cruising
the gut,” Dave Hunsaker, 73,
of Baker City said. He and
his wife, Joyce, 66, toured
up and down Main Street
in their red 1960 Triumph
TR3. When Dave was going
to college at San Diego State
University in 1960s he had a
1960 Triumph TR3. When his
son was born he traded it in
for a Datsun station wagon.
Saturday night, “he cruised
the gut,” just like he used
to when he was a teenager
growing up on Coronado
Island just off the coast of
California.
The fire spawned two
towering smoke plumes,
visible throughout North-
eastern Oregon, on Tuesday
when it burned into thick-
ets in the Wild Sheep Creek
drainage.
But rain on Wednesday
night slowed the fire.
The fire’s perimeter
is about 4,734 acres, but
inside that area the flames
have stayed on the ground,
rather than burning into
the crowns of trees, over
much of the acreage, Forest
Service officials said.
“You couldn’t plan a bet-
ter burn in mid-elevation
mixed conifer,” said Nathan
Goodrich, fire management
officer for the Eagle Cap
Ranger District. “Every-
thing’s cleaning up really
nicely with very low levels
of mortality in the over-
story.”
Allowing lightning fires
to perform their natural
role in the Eagle Cap Wil-
derness, Oregon’s largest
at 365,000 acres, is the goal
of a Forest Service policy
in place for more than 25
years.
That policy allows the
agency to use a variety of
tactics to manage lightning
fires, rather than trying to
put them out as quickly as
possible.
In the case of the Granite
Gulch fire, officials have
called in helicopters on sev-
eral days to drop water on
parts of the fire to slow its
spread, mainly to the west.
