McKenzie Route On This Day In Oregon

"Mr. and Mrs. G.W. Cobb crossed the Cascade Mountains by the Santiam route about two weeks ago. They found snow for ten miles and it averaged about five feet deep. At times they had twelve horses hitched to one wagon. It took them four days to cross the summit. They tried the McKenzie route, but they failed."
