Why this spot
1895-1912 sawmill and logging railroad town
Small lumber town around a sawmill founded by Albert Klise in 1895, with a blacksmith, store and boarding house and a 14-mile logging railroad that ran Shay locomotives. Its post office lasted from 1908 to 1912 and almost nothing remains.View source →
