Is there an address anywhere on the catalog & if so, does the address have a Zip Code?? That would tell you which side of about 1968 it's from.
Refresh my memory; Where's Long Creek at??
Welcome aboard; the guy in charge forgot to take his memory pills again, but will be along shortly with an official welcome. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

?????? I thought that the Columbia River was just North of John Day.
I seem to remember seeing the signs for the turn-off to Long Creek on my way down toward French Glenn.

The John Day River runs north through central Oregon and into the Columbia River. I am less sure of where the little town of John Day is but recall it as central or south eastern.

Good hunting. LB

John Day is about 75-80 miles east of Prineville. Long Creek is probably 25 miles north of John Day.
Koko-I know you've been to Burns, John Day is about 60 miles north, kinda between Pendleton and Burns.
"Whew" there's our Oregon geography lesson. I think ? Lol..BTW all great country.

Leaving Prineville a couple years ago, I took the back roads down through Alturas and Reno. The section of south eastern Oregon I saw looked like very good coyote country.
Good hunting. LB

Good looking coyote country that holds good looking coyotes. There's some quality fur from that area.
I'll remember for a long time one big male that came in on a frosty morning when the light was `just right`. It looked like he had a silver aura around him.
