REACHES PEAK OF
Arrival Marks Victory in
Race to Complete Truck
Trail Before Rainy Season
To Build New Tower
CAMP WIMER. Spt. ls-t,Spl..
Oall Hugglns, who learned caterpillar
bulldozer operation In the CCC, had
t)Q honor of setting the first Wlmer
machine on. top of Battle mountain
Tuesday. Arrival of Hugglns at the
top of southern Oregon's historic In
dian battleground signalized victory
for WImer's technical force in the
race to complete a truck trail to the
summit before the fall rains. Ma
terial lor the new 40-foot observation
tower has been received and by the
end of the week trucks will be able
to travel up Fry gulch to the Battle
mountain-Fry peak ridge and thence
to the summit of Battle mountain.
Lew Mort. Junior civil engineer, will
build the new tower with 2x8 creo
sotcd laminated plok. The house
at the top will be of the nested type
strongly braced. Construction work
will be done with CCC labor.
The country surrounding Battle
mountain la an excellent hunting
ground, but hunters who hope to get
their deer out by car will be disap
pointed to learn that the road will
not be opened for traffic this season.
Gates along the road will be locked
so that CCC members working near
the summit will not be menaced by
stray 'illets Intended for deer.
Because of its historical signifi
cance. Battle mountain may some
time be designated for development
as a natural park. The story as it
that In 1851 a body of soldiers lost
three officers killed In a brush with
the Indians. The bodies of the dead
men were concealed hastily. Later
o n. thefff t11"8 returned with three
metal coffins to give the den off!
cers proper burial, they found that
the dead had disappeared. Ty ac
cordingly nailetPthe three coffins to
a tree. Wlmer members have search
ed for thP tree but have not been
able to find it.
The new road passes above the
spring on the Fry peak side of Battle
mountain and makes one and s half
turns around the mountain to reach
the summit. Viewed from an airplane,
the road will look like a huge ques
tion mark. Visitors to the tower, spl
raling up to the summit, will have
an unobstrued view of the sur
rounding country during the last half
mile of the ascent. O
At the Juncture of the new road
with the Bvans creek trail, parking
space Will be lrft. Kn t.hnf. vtcitnr .ni

tain. A coo! spring at the old log
cabin near this point will add to the
comfort of visitors.
