Photo shows the headwaters of the Sandy River on the western slope of Mt. Hood. Timber growth is slowly covering the scars of a forest fire which probably raged around 1890. Mt. Hood, 11,245 feet high, was named in 1792 in honor of Viscount Hood of the English peerage.
Four hundred miles of magnificent beaches await the motorist who travels the Oregon Coast Highway (U. S. 101). Oregon's beaches are owned by the state and are free to the world. This photograph was taken beneath Neahkahnie mountain north of Tillamook. (Photo, Courtesy Oregon State Highway Department)
