As a result of a boat trip down th Rogue river from a point 20 miles i below Oranta psaa to Gold Beach, I taken by Frederick Wagner, publisher of the San Francisco Call-Bulletin, ' and his nephew, Q. ft. Clancy of Los Angeles, a three-column story ap- ' pea red In a recent issue of the Call Bulletin describing the beauty and 1 bounteous fish and game abounding In that section. It waa written by "Uncle Joe" Dear Ing, who conduct a dally column In ' the San Francisco newspaper. Dearlng let Publisher Wagner tell the story ; of the 100-mlle trip In his own words. ! part of which follows: j "Of the total distance to Gold Beach, between 75 and 80 mile is j shooting fast, thrilling rapid and , riffles. Our boat was run backward down the river for about 80 miles I through swift water. Our guide, Glen . Woolrldge of Oranta Pass, faced downstream to be In position to spot ' rocks and to guide our craft Into , the current. ."At two potnta on the trip we' completely unloaded. At one place, Blossom Bar. a virtual Niagara, the boat was lifted serosa huge boulders and then put Into the swift stream and cauttoiutly lowered several hun dred yards by mean of ropes. Inter- I sperslng the seemingly endless num ber of rapids were smooth deep pool of water slowly moving between prec Ipltlou canyon walls of Unsurpassed magnificence. Each of these quiet and beautiful gorges, however, proved to be the quiet before the storm. "They preceded descents Into swirl ing, roaring, foaming cascades, the meanest of which was the Devil's Staircase, which 1 modestly named. Indeed. "It took nine days to make the voyage down tho Rogue although without any overday stops It ran be made In five days of steady travel. We stayed over full day at four points that were so beautiful and the fishing so good we couldn't go on sooner. When we reached clear water, wo easily caught all the fish we could consume. The ateelhesd wc took messured 12 to 20 lnche; the trout around 10 Inches, with many larger. , "On the fourth day out a forked 1 horn buck, dressing around 135 i pounds, waa bagged. This fine animal ! waa found browsing around an aban- ! doned orchard, not far from the river. ! Deer sign were everywhere, and many ' friendly and curious fawns and does were onlooker wherever we made our ' camp. On the seventh day, we shot . a bear. j "Although we spent the tenth day ! trolling for salmon at the mouth of the Rogue river without getting a strike, the trip waa voted a perfect cruise. Marvelous fishing, a bear, a deer, thrilling shooting of rapids, and periods of drifting through timber lined country of Indescribable gran deur. What more could any sports man of either rod or gun clan ask? "Although the Rogue river trip Is an ever changing paradise for sports men, it Is of equal attraction to lovers of the great outdoors, For rugged, verdant and varied scenery. It Is unequaled. Very few, however, have ridden the rapids of the Rogue be tween Oranta Pass and Gold Beach because of It being so little known "As an Indication of how compara tively few people have shot the rapid of the Rogue, It 1 recounted that In 22 years, Woolrldge has piloted about 225 paABengera In 75 trips. "With broader exploitation of the Rogue river territory, that region Is destined to Immensely greater popu larity. Intelligent publicity by the Oregon state highway commission and the typical western cordiality and hospitality of citizens of various communltle of Oregon are hastening the day of enjoyment of that unsur- passed virgin territory by more lovers of the outdoors.'
