420 Adventures in Scenery 



Graves Grove Monument. This trail winds down through the 

 giant Redwoods, Ferns, Rhododendrons, Huckleberry, and 

 Salmonberry, about two miles to the shore of the Pacific Ocean. 

 Splendid Redwoods with fine views of the ocean make it well 

 worth while to follow this trail to the shore. 



Frank S. Stout Memorial and Hiouchi 

 State Parks Near Crescent City 



Northeast of Crescent City, eight miles off the main high- 

 way to the right (east) on a side road (Rowland Grade) , at 

 the confluence of Mill Creek and Smith River, is one of the 

 finest of all the Redwood groves, the Frank D. Stout Memorial 

 Redwood Park, on Mill Creek Flat, a tract of 44 acres. Splen- 

 did Redwood forests in the vicinity of the Stout Grove, to be 

 known as the Mill Creek Redwood Forest, are in process of 

 acquisition by the Save-the-Redwoods League. It is devoutly 

 hoped that this will be realized. 



Nine miles from Crescent City, on the main Redwood high- 

 way, is Hiouchi State Park, the farthest north State Redwood 

 Park in California. 



Oregon Caves and Grant's Pass 

 at End of Route 



Fifty miles farther, by the main Redwood highway, a side 

 road leads to the Oregon Caves, and 39 miles still farther is 

 Grant's Pass, Oregon, 444 miles from San Francisco, and 277 

 miles from Portland. The caves have been made a national 

 monument, and were referred to by Joaquin Miller, the author, 

 as "The Marble Halls of Oregon." The monument covers an 

 area of 480 acres. Regular guide service is available, and a trip 

 through the galleries, which are embraced on four floors of the 

 cave, occupies two hours. 



From Grant's Pass the tourist may continue north to Port- 

 land, 277 miles, or turn south via Mount Shasta and Lassen Peak 

 to Sacramento and San Francisco, 466 miles.
