title: View of the Columbia River in the evening, Oregon, ca.1903

description: Photograph of a view of the Columbia River in the evening, Oregon, ca.1903. A small sailboat and its pilot are sailing in the calm waters of the river. Silhouettes of the trees near the shoreline (at right) are reflected in the waters. The small ripples of waves in the water are visible. A pier-like structure is visible in the background. Mountains are visible in the distance. Clouds loom above.; "The 80-mile-long Gorge is a testament to the power of flowing water - over the eons, the mighty Columbia River has worn this deep gash into the volcanic rock of the Cascade Range nearly down to sea level. At points the canyon walls tower 4,000 feet above the river. Frequent rain nourishes a lush rain forest and replenishes the waters that cascade over sheer basalt cliffs into blinding cataracts - there are 77 waterfalls on the Oregon side of the Gorge alone. The western Gorge is dominated by the dark verdure of conifer, while also sheltering stands of big-leaf maple, cottonwood, Oregon ash, and vine maple. The eastern Gorge is home to Oregon oak and big-leaf maple. For over 31,000 years, the Columbia River Gorge has supported flourishing civilizations. Evidence of the Folsom and Marmes people, who crossed the Great Continental Divide from Asia, were found in archaeological digs. Excavations at Five Mile Rapids, a few miles east of The Dalles, show humans have occupied this ideal salmon-fishing site for more than 10,000 years." -- unknown author.

title: View of moonlight on the Rogue River near Grant Pass, Oregon, ca.1950

description: Photograph of a view of moonlight on the Rogue River near Grant Pass, Oregon, ca.1950. Clouds above the river partially blocks the moon's rays but allows enough to penetrate creating a spectacular view of scattered moon rays. The rays reflect off of the river revealing the ripples and waves in the water. Outlines of the trees and mountains in the distance are visible.; "The river's popularity is steadily growing as more and more visitors to Southern Oregon view the spectacular rapids and falls, and drink in the calm serenity of the still waters. Beautiful old-growth pines and twisted madrone grace the banks and deer graze in pastures bordering the water. Osprey fish for Chinook salmon while blue heron skim majestically along the sparkling waters. The Rogue River is the embodiment of the Oregon dream lifestyle, a relaxing haven away from the strife of modern city life. More often than not, visitors come for a week and stay for a lifetime. We here in Southern Oregon, invite you to do the same. The Rogue's headwaters start at Crater Lake and twist and roar for 215 miles through the Cascade, Siskiyou and Coastal Ranges before spilling into the Pacific at Gold Beach. Numerous small towns dot its journey west, most notably the city of Rogue River, which took its name from the river itself. As the river leaves the Cascade range it winds its way through the Rogue valley. Gracious river homes line the banks where lucky residents live amongst the natural splendor. From the relative calm of the valley the river takes a dramatic turn as it enters the coastal range at Hellgate Canyon. From Hellgate for the next 60 miles the Rogue takes a wild and scenic trip through the coastal range towards its final destination: the Pacific Ocean." -- Jennifer McKinney, 2001.

title: View of the Morro Rock in San Luis Obispo County, California, 1900-1930

description: Photograph of a view of the Morro Rock in San Luis Obispo County, California, 1900-1930. The 576 feet rock has an almost semi-circular shape. The setting sun casts a linear reflection in the water. Several sailboats wade in the water near the foreground. Waves are making its way to the shores towards the right.; "Morro Rock, at 576 feet, is the northern most visible member of the Nine Sisters. It is probably the most photographed of all the Morros, and provides a unique outcropping to the entrance of Morro Bay. Morro Rock has been an important mariner's navigational landfall for over 300 years. It was chronicled in the diaries of Portola, Fr. Creaspi and Costanso in 1769 when they camped near this area on their trek to find Monterey. Sometimes called the Gibraltar of the Pacific, it is the last in the famous chain of nine peaks, which extends from the City of San Luis Obispo. Morro Rock was first sighted in 1542 by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo who named it "El Morro". In Spanish "Morro" means crown shaped hill. The rock itself was mined on and off until 1963. Morro Rock provided material for the breakwater of Morro Bay and Port San Luis Harbor. In 1966 a bill was introduced which transferred the full title to the State of California. Later the San Luis Obispo County Historical Society and the City of Morro Bay succeeded in getting the Morro Rock declared as California Registered Historical Landmark #821. Morro Rock also became State Landmark #801 in 1968. The rock has since been designated a bird sanctuary for the Peregrine Falcon and other bird species." -- Gary Felsman, ca.2000.

Waves are crashing into the rock (foreground). A large ship is visible in the distance.; "Anacapa Island is located 14 miles off the coast from Ventura. It is the only Channel Island to retain its American Indian name, derived from the Chumash word, "Eneepah", meaning island of deception or mirage. Ocean waves have eroded the perimeter of the island, creating steep sea cliffs towering hundreds of feet in height and exposing the volcanic origins of air pockets, lava tubes, and sea caves. At the east end of Anacapa a natural bridge has formed in the ocean. Forty-foot high Arch Rock is a trademark of Anacapa and Channel Islands National Park. Arch Rock is a natural bridge formed by sea erosion." -- unknown author.

title: View of the Devil's Slide, looking south from the Union Pacific Railroad tracks, Wasatch Mountains, Utah, ca.1900-1930

description: Photograph of a view of the Devil's Slide, looking south from the Union Pacific Railroad tracks, Wasatch Mountains, Utah, ca.1900-1930. The rugged limestone slide sits on the side of the mountain. Below the mountainside is a river (or creek?). Opposite of the river is the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. Trees cover the area between the river and the tracks. The mountainside is covered with shrub grass and sparsely scattered trees. Picture file card reads: "On U.P.R.R. east end of Ogden in Weber County."; "Devil's Slide is located 9 miles east of Morgan. Hundreds of legends associated with this natural formation have been recorded since the early 1800's when the Indians and Trappers roamed the area. The best tale of the bunch led to its rather fitting name and helped establish it as one of Utah's best-known natural wonders. The unusual limestone formation, which was painted by famed artist Thomas Moran in 1873, consists of two parallel reefs 20 feet apart and 40-foot or so high slabs running up the mountain. According to Rufus Wood Leigh's book, '500 Utah Place Names,' the chute was probably considered 'fit for a devil's slide.' The site is frequently listed in early railroad tourist guides. The railroad still runs right by the site, but most people see it today from their automobiles. Weber Canyon once had names that were associated with the Devil - Devil's Slide, Devil's Gate, the Devil's Chair, Devil's Looking Glass -- it was basically because it was such a treacherous and hard canyon to get through. About 170 million years ago the area around Devil's Slide was covered by a shallow sea. And on the floor of this sea, many layers of rock were formed. Some hard, some soft. The layers that eventually created the Devil's Slide formation were hard limestone. The limestone was turned on end during the uplifting of the Sevier Mountain Belt, beginning about 100 Million Years ago. Periods of uplift and erosion eventually resulted in the present Wasatch Mountains and the exposure of these beds." -- unknown author.

title: View of Mount Hood overlooking Trillium Lake, Oregon, [s.d.]

description: Photograph of a view of Mount Hood overlooking Trillium Lake, Oregon, [s.d.]. The silhouette of the mountain is visible in the calm waters of the lake. Beyond the lake is a wall of tall trees.; "Mount Hood (45.4N, 121.7W) is the tallest mountain in Oregon (11,237 feet, 3,426 m) and popular with skiers, hikers, and climbers. It is 45 miles (75 km) east-southeast of Portland, Oregon. Mount Hood is a stratovolcano made of lava flows, domes, and volcaniclastic deposits. Most of the volcano is andesite composition. The main cone of Mount Hood formed about 500,000 years ago. In the last 15,000 years the volcano has had four eruptive periods. During the most recent eruptive period, 250-180 years ago, lava domes collapsed and produced numerous pyroclastic flows and lahars, which buried the southwest flank of the mountain. Crater Rock, a prominent rocky pinnacle just below the summit, is the most recent lava dome. Similar eruptions in the future pose the greatest risk to communities on the flank of the volcano." -- unknown author.

description: Photograph of a panoramic view of Crater Lake, Oregon, ca.1900-1940. The edges of the lake rise above the water level and appear to be at a steeply inclined, which gives the lake the crater look. A small island (or rock formation?) juts above the water near the shores on the opposite side (at left). Trees cover the cliffs (or mountainous area) in the foreground.; "The lake was formed after the collapse of an ancient volcano, posthumously named Mount Mazama. This volcano violently erupted approximately 7700 years ago. That eruption was 42 times as powerful as the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. The basin or caldera was formed after the top 5000 feet of the volcano collapsed. Subsequent lava flows sealed the bottom, allowing the caldera to fill with approximately 4.6 trillion gallons of water from rainfall and snow melt, to create the seventh deepest lake in the world at 1,932 feet. Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States." -- unknown author.
