Early print of Pyramid Lake, Oregon...
Item # 704912
March 29, 1851
SATURDAY EVENING POST, Philadelphia, March 29, 1851 The top of the front page features a nice print of: "Pyramid Lake, Oregon" which would seem to be one of the earlier prints of it to be found in any periodical. Beneath the print is very descriptive text.
Four pages, large folio size, 3 folds, mild wear at the folds & margins, good condition. Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
AI notes: Pyramid Lake in Oregon is a small, serene alpine lake located in the Mount Hood National Forest within the Roaring River Wilderness, at an elevation of about 3,993 feet. Accessed via the Pyramid Lake Road Trailhead, the hike to the lake is short—only 0.23 miles—but steep, gaining around 240 feet in elevation through silver fir and mountain hemlock forests. While the trail can be overgrown, it offers a peaceful and scenic spot for nature lovers. The area also features other trails and attractions for those exploring the broader Roaring River Wilderness.
