Sluggish Waters - Illinois River - Oregon

'In the case filed this week, the ACLU says it has obtained data that shows the Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Department has been stopping Asians roughly 12 times as often as other drivers. Asians account for less than 2 percent of the population in the 85 percent white county, but they were “nearly 25 times more likely to be searched during a traffic stop than white residents,” the ACLU found, noting that nearly three-quarters of those encounters ended with no citation or arrest, proof of “a pattern of stops conducted without reasonable suspicion.”'

So, the article is from 2022, but it's 2023 now and I haven't found any new news about the mistreatment and blatant discrimination of Hmong people in Siskiyou County. Obviously, they're targeting Hmong people to drive them out of the community, passing laws/ordinances that mostly affect only Asian American properties despite being only around 2% of the county population. Siskiyou County has a racist history dating back to the 1800's where they discriminated against Chinese immigrants.

As I hiked through the rugged terrain of the Siskiyou Mountains, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the breathtaking landscape before me. My camera in hand, I was determined to capture the natural beauty of rural northern California that so few people get to see.

After a challenging climb up the creekside slope, I finally reached the perfect spot to capture the stunning Indian Creek. As I carefully set up my shot, the sounds of rushing water and chirping birds filled my ears, and the fresh scent of pine trees filled my nose.

Just as I was about to snap the photo, I stumbled and nearly lost my balance, narrowly avoiding disaster and dropping my camera on the rocks below. But I persevered, and with a steady hand, managed to capture the shot just in time.

Looking back on that moment now, I feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. Not only did I get the shot I was after, but I also proved to myself that my determination can overcome even the most challenging barriers.

This photo is more than just a beautiful image of nature, it's a symbol of my resilience and my connection to the natural world around me.

This image was captured on Squaw Valley Creek in Siskiyou County, California, USA. I captured the image on a somewhat overcast afternoon and really liked the soft ethereal light as the sun was filtered through the clouds. This part of the creek, just below the confluence of a small stream known as Cabin Creek, is especially beautiful. The famed Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) crosses just a short distance downstream from where this was captured. The small town of McCloud is just a few miles away and the whole area sits at the base of the majestic Mount Shasta, the fifth highest peak in the state of California.

Creek Bottom - Oregon

Possibly the tallest waterfall of Oregon photographed for the first time ever .💦

📸 by Andrew Martin

Okay, I know this is a bold claim, but it is for real. This waterfall is known to exist in the US geological waterfall survey but nobody has ever taken a picture of it (as far as I'm aware through hours of research), nor measured it due to it being unaccessible for viewing without a drone.

It is NOT seasonal and runs year round, dropping off a sheer cliff surrounded by steep walls into a deep forested valley. This is it captured in full volume. Some locals know about this waterfall, however, and visit it only from the top as I have in this picture.

After a long adventure in the Siskiyous to the top of a mountain and back down the back side this waterfall reveils itself. After flying my drone out and down the falls and then studying the topographic map of the region I can say the waterfall is approximately 750 ft from the very top to the very last tier at the bottom before leveling out, making this waterfall taller than Multnomah Falls!

Obviously we will need further measurements for confirmation, but I want to try to work with the US geological survey to record this data. Until then I cannot disclose the name or exact location of this spot beyond it is in the Southern Oregon Rogue-Siskiyou mountain range. 💦🤙

Caddys in the Snow by Greg Brown Via Flickr: It's a January morning on the Siskiyou Line in 1988. Southern Pacific 4313 is hard at it, crunching cars with another SD9. The venerable EMDs are at Belleview siding, switching out the Croman Corporation mill on the south side of Ashland, Oregon.
