Forest! rails Offer Wide Variety Of Scenery To Those Who Enjoy Outdoors before the last snow is gone, out door enthusiasts will be traveling lo their favorite fishing or camp ing spot. A great number of these areas are nestled far in the back country, accessible only by trail. A few hours' walk may brine vou within reach of a wilderness lake where you may camp or fish and have an entire lake to yourself. Whether the traveler is pre pared to spend several days in the wild or merely an afternoon on the trail, there are outfitters who will equip you with the necessary gear and provide horses for you. These "packers" are located at Lake of the Woods, Harriman and in Klam ath Falls. They are experienced and can guide you to the best fishing and camping areas. To mention some of the nearby trails, one of the most popular is the Oregon Skyline Trail. This trail begins at Fourmile Lake and runs norlh to the Columbia River through some of the most rugged and spectacular country in the West. The local reaches of this trail take you to many of the high lakes and through Alpine scenery, most of which is above the 6,000 foot level. Many people choose to hike this trail from Fourmile Lake to Cold Spring Camp. This hike will take about a day. The bky line Trail is in good condition and the grade is hoi steep, generally. Another of our trails is the Mt. McLoughlin Trail. This path is accessible at Lake of the Woods Ranger Station and on the Four- mile Lake Road about two miles south of the lake. The six-mile ascent to the summit of 9,500-foot Mt. McLoughlin is only for the more experienced hiker. As this is more of a mountain climb than a hike, all climbers must register at Lake of the Woods Ranger Sta tion before and after the ascent. Over 600 people viewed Southern Oregon from the peak of Mt. Mc Loughlin last summer. Perhaps the most scenic of our trails is the Mountain Lakes Wild Area Trail. This area is ac cessible through trails leading up high lakes. This trail is every bit as scenic as the Skyline and other trails, but it does not seem to be as popular. A hiker may walk all day without seeing another person'. The Forest Service offers maps which show all of the trails en the Rogue River National Forest, giv ing the locations of camps, lakes and other points of interest. One map in particular shows the en lire Oregon portion of the Skyline Trail. These maps are free, so call at the Forest Service office in the post office building and pick one up. We will be glad to dis cuss the conditions of these trails and give suggestions for your hik ing pleasure. Remember you can preserve the natural beauty of these wild areas by leaving them as clean as you lound them and being careful with (ire. r ----------- 1 l I HERE'S SOMETHING !
