In 1913, accompanied by my father and a friend, Max Short, I made a five weeks camping trip, travelling with team and wagon. We left The Dalles on May 15, and drove up the Columbia River to the mouth of the Deschutes, then south through Sherman County to Madras, from Madras to Silver Lake by way of Redmond and Bend, through the Deschutes National Forest reserve of Crook* and north- eastern 'Klamath counties. The return was made by way of the Paulina Mountains and Prine- 5 .... ville to Madras, from which place a side trip was made to Sisters before driving to The Dalles through Warm Springs Indian Reservation, Mutton ...... Mountains and Tygh Valley.
