Area Opened For Hunters (Continued From Page 1) River channel should offer good Canada goose shooting. Hunters are cautioned that there are sink holes and quicksand in this area It is suggested that nimrods hunt in pairs; in case one hunter has difficulty his partner can come to his aid. Hunters are reminded that Big Wocus Bay is not a part of the refuge and remains under t h e jurisdiction of the Klamath In dians. The boundary between the refuge and Big Wocus Bay clearly posted. The Klamath Forest National Wildlife Refuge was purchased by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Serv ice from the Klamath Indians un der the Klamath Indian Ter mination Act, with funds derived from the sale of duck stamps to hunters, philatelists, and other supporters of the service's water fowl program. The transfer of the marsh to the service was con- sumated on Sept. 7, I960. The refuge is administered from the headquarters of the Tuie Lake Na tional Wildlife Refuge at Tulelake. Refuge development is still in the planning stage, but proposes a headquarters on the east side of the marsh directly south of the Silver Lake Road, a small recre ation area including both picnick ing and camping facilities, and some marsh improvement. Maps of the refuge and public hunting area are available at the Sand Creek Service Station and sporting goods stores in Klamath Falls.
