I Arizona to Oregon Trip
Recounted by L. Boecks
Mr. and Mrs. Louis C. Boeck
of Phoenix, Arizona are visiting
her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. B.
Counts.
They left Phoenix June 25, tra
veling through the Navajo Indian
Reservation in northern Arizona,
the largest of the 17 tribes in the
state, which has the largest Indian
population in the U.S. They are
now living in shacks and small
houses, instead of hogans, since
they are receiving a percentage
of the income from over 100 oil
wells on the reservation.
The Boecks visited Glen Can
yon dam, under construction on
the Colorado river, which will be
the second largest in the world af
ter completion in 1964, and crossed
the Glen Canyon bridge over the
dam, the highest steel arch bridge
in the world.
The snow capped mountains in
Utah were beautiful but none were
as outstanding and grand as Mt.
Hood.
At Burley, Idaho they went
through the Simplot Potato plant,
also the Betty Crocker plant and
attended the opening of a large
beautiful motel, comparable to
those in Phoenix.
They visited the Tom Throop
family in Dayville, whose daugh
ter, Dorothy, took them on a sight
seeing trip into the Malhsur Na
tional forest. They then drove on
to Portland and Hillsboro where
they visited relatives before com
ing here. The weather here feels
quite chilly, as they left tempera
tures of 110 and 112 degrees in
Phoenix.
