HlLLMAN STEEL POINTS (JUNIOR) VOL. 1 AUGUST, 1925 No. 2 CRATER LAKE Crater Lake National Park is located on the summit of the Cascade range of mountains, in Southern Oregon, and contains 249 square miles, one-fifth the size of Rhode Island. It was created by act of congress, approved May 22, 1902, and within it is one of the world's greatest natural curiosities. Originally a mountain 15,000 feet high, covered with perpetual snow and great glaciers, it emitted a stream of boiling lava that filled vast canyons. The world was unsettled in those days and the elements were at war. Finally a time came when this immense mountain tottered and fell within itself, 17 cubic miles of matter disappearing within it, leaving a cauldron five and one-half miles in diameter, a seething mass of hoiling lava, probably 5,000 feet deep, as all that part of the mountain above 7,000 feet elevation disappeared. Ages came and went as the days, and this boiling mass began to cool. Slowly, hut surely. Snows and rains descended, evaporated and disappeared. Finally a little pocket in the cooling lava filled with water, but the warm base and sun dried it up. Bye and bye others appeared and were a little larger. The cooling process continued. At last little pools continued over Summer and Winter and increased in size, then they joined and spread over more lava.

It still is. -Klamathdder, 1999 G BEFORE EUROPEANS GLIMPSED the Pacific Northwest, Crater Lake was well known to many Native peoples of the region. L To the east of the lake, Klamaths lived alongside the high-altitude desert lakes of south-central Oregon. To the west, in the rugged and densely forested western slopes of the Cascades, were the Molalas. Farther to the west, in the river valleys of the western Cascades, the Takelmas lived in the Upper Rogue River Basin and the Athapaskan-speaking Upper Umpquas lived on the river of the same name. All of these peoples knew of Crater Lake, and all had legends ofits genesis.

The environmental consequences of the proposed actions are discussed in the Environmental Assessment portion of the plan. The Environmental Assessment indicates that no endangered or threatened species, floodplains, or wetlands would be adversely affected by the proposed actions. In addition, because the proposed actions regarding the cultural resources are conceptual, they have no potential impact on properties currently registered or eligible for the "National Register of Historic Places". Prior to the implementation of any cultural resource projects which may affect properties currently registered or eligible for the Register, the views of the Historic Preservation League will be requested and all applicable laws and regulations applied.

I JUNE, 1927 No. 3 THE LLAOS* While at Fort Klamath, in 1885, I obtained from Allen David, then chief of the Klamath Indians, the following tradition. When telling the story, David placed his partly closed hands before him, to describe the rock on which the Indian's throat was cut by Llaos. No mention was made of the fact in my notes and I had forgotten it until next day when a view was obtained of the rock, when a vision of hands appeared to me and it was then and there named Llao Rock. "A long time ago, long before the white man appeared in this region to vex and drive the proud native out, a band of Klamaths, while out hunting, came suddenly upon th lake and were startled by its remarkable walls and awed by its majestic proportions. With spirits subdued and trembling with fear, they silently approached and gazed upon its face; something within told them the Great Spirit dwelt there, and they dared not remain but passed silently down the side of the mountain and camped far away. By some unaccountable influence, however, one brave was induced to return. He went up to the very brink of the precipice and started his camp fire. Here he laid down to rest; here he slept toill morn—slept till the sun was high in air, then arose and joined his tribe, *Llao was the Indian deity.
