Looking southeast across McKenzie near Red Sides

Title
Looking southeast across McKenzie near Red Sides
LC Subject
Forest reserves--Oregon
Description
This shows the river some three miles above Blue River. The mountain in the distance is Death Ball Mountain which got its curious name in this manner--some government surveyors were working around the mountain; their cook was a heavy handed man who made such hard solid biscuits that the men called them "death balls". The mountain had no name, so it was put on the map as Death Ball Mountain.
