It has an area of 249 square miles, or 159,360 acres, and was set apart from the public AULDRON-LIKE and circular, 7,000 feet domain and dedicated as a park on May 22, 1902. C high, is perched amid the peaks. Perpen­ Crater Lake itself is a body of water 6 miles in diameter of un­ believable blue, occupying the crater of an extinct volcano.

The cones vary greatly in size and and 2,000 feet deep. are distributed without regularity. Each has been an active volcano. " To the scientist, a mighty volcano collapsed The fragments, blown out by violent eruption, have fallen upon the volcanic orifice from which they issued and built up cinder cones. within itself, Mount Mazama, 15,000 feet high, telescoped.

But to this general form of volcanic architecture there was an exception. One of the very largest of these ancient volcanoes was Mount Mazama, which lifted VI its majestic cone nearly to the height of Mount Rainier, 300 miles to the north. But this was ages ago. No human eyes ever saw Mount Mazama. Long before man came the entire upper part of it in some titanic cataclysm fell in upon itself as if swallowed by a subterranean cav­ ern, leaving its craterlike lava sides cut sharply downward into the central abyss. What a spectacle that must have been! The first awful depth of this vast hole no man can guess. But the volcano was not quenched.

    Overview for Geologic Field-Trip Guides to Mount Mazama, Crater Lake Caldera, and Newberry Volcano, Oregon Scientific Investigations Report 2017–5022–J U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Cover (top photo): View east-northeast from Garfield Peak on the south rim of Crater Lake caldera. Peak on skyline is 8,929 feet (2,722 meters) Mount Scott, an ~420 thousand years before present (ka) dacite stratovolcano considered to be part of Mount Mazama, the volcano that collapsed during the caldera-forming eruption ~7,700 years ago. The caldera walls in this view expose Mazama lava flows and fragmental deposits from as old as ~400 ka at Phantom Cone, adjacent to tiny Phantom Ship island, to as young as ~27 ka at Redcloud Cliff, the V-shaped face at the top of the wall left of center. The beheaded glacial valley of Kerr Notch, the low point on the caldera rim, is seen between Phantom Ship and Mount Scott. Photograph by Carly McLanahan. Cover (bottom photo): Newberry Volcano, Oregon, is the largest volcano in the Cascades volcanic arc. This north-facing view taken from the volcano’s peak, Paulina Peak (elevation 7,984 feet), encompasses much of the volcano’s 4-by-5-milewide central caldera, a volcanic depression formed in a powerful explosive eruption about 75,000 years ago. The caldera’s two lakes, Paulina Lake (left) and the slightly higher East Lake (right), are fed in part by active hot springs heated by molten rock (magma) deep beneath the caldera. The Central Pumice Cone sits between the lakes.

  • Ted Towendolly and the Wintu Origins of Short-Line Nymphing on The
    Ted Towendolly and the Origin of Short-Line Nymphing on the Upper Sac: How the Wintu Indians, the 49ers, Ted Fay, and Joe Kimsey Impacted Modern-day Nymphing with a Fly. BY ERIC PALMER October, 2017 A shorter version of this article first appeared in the April 2015 “California Fly Fisher”. The following is an expanded version of that article. It’s known by many names: Tight-line nymphing, short-line nymphing, high-stick nymphing, pocket water nymphing, and even Czech Nymphing. But in the end, they are all the same deadly nymphing technique that was first fished on the banks of Northern California’s Upper Sacramento River as far back as the 1920s at the hands of Wintu Indian Ted Towendolly. So for simplicity’s sake, let’s just agree to call it “short-line nymphing” since we’re trying to catch a trout that’s virtually at our feet with no more than a fly rod’s length of leader extended beyond the rod tip — a “short-line”. But, how the heck can we catch trout while standing right on top of them without spooking them? It’s easy. Short- line nymphing is a pocket water technique; that highly agitated water just below large rocks and boulders with the boiling, frothy dense cover fish crave. It provides safety and security from predators in a zone with abundant oxygen, cold temps and an infinite conveyer belt of food drifting right by The short-line nymphing lob — not pretty, but very effective. their nose. What’s not to love about that if you’re a trout? If they only knew what clever schemes fly fishermen have contrived to fool them.

  • Subsistence Variability in the Willamette Valley Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Francine M. Havercroft for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Anthropology, History and Anthropology presented on June 16, 1986. Title: Subsistence Variability in the Willamette Valley Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: V Richard E. Ross During the summer of 1981, Oregon State University archaeologically tested three prehistoric sites on the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge. Among the sites tested were typical Willamette Valley floodplain and adjacent upland sites. Most settlement-subsistence pattern models proposed for the Willamette Valley have been generated with data from the eastern valley floor, western Cascade Range foothills. The work at Wm. L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge provides one of the first opportunities to view similar settings along the western margins of the Willamette Valley.
