Verizon Wants To Build Two100-Foot Cell Towers In BaKer City

By Joshua Dillen]dillen©bakercityherald.com
To build or not to build. Data is thequestion.
Verizon Wireless's request to buildtwo 100-foot-tall cell towers in BakerCity was considered by the PlanningCommission Wednesday night atCity Hall. The Council Chamberswere packed with about 40 peoplewho were mostly opposed to theconstruction of the towers.
The request to build is necessarybecause local zoning ordinances onlyallow for a 38- and 50-foot-tall towers. Acom Consulting, Verizon's representative, is asking for conditionaluse permits to install the towers.
While not approved at the meet
ing, the project wasn't denied either.The commission chose to continuethe discussion until its next meeting.
One issue that brought a collective groan from the audience waswhen City Attorney Drew Martinexplained Federal CommunicationsCommission iFCCl rules regardingpublic hearings concerning radiofrequency installations.
"It's impermissible for the Commission to consider the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions as part of the decision to allowor deny the cell tower," Martin said.
Planning Commissioner KenRockwell clarified that informationby asking about testimony regardingpotential health affects that people

Terry Ann DeBruyne July 11, 1953 — Sept. 1, 2015
From her husband Michael,Terry Ann was mybest friend, my soul mate, my everything. For over 30 years we weretogether. We traveled among many other places to Alaska, Europe, Aruba, Mexico,Costa Rica, Hawaii, Egypt, Turkey and many American national parks. Other thingsshe loved doing included tennis, archery, gardening and sudoku puzzles. While Alexbecame a black belt, Terry was also becoming a brown belt in Tien Tae Jitsu. She wasquite simply the kindest, most thoughtful and best person I have ever known.She found out she had stage 3 breast cancer in early 2010. We fought that all year withoperations, IV chemo and radiation treatment. It became dormant for 2011, 2012,2013 and 2014. Our lives were normal. Then in 2015, the breast cancer came back inthe form of an incurable bone marrow cancer. We battled that all year until she passedon September 1. That's a pretty insidious disease.For the last 2 weeks of Terry's life her sister Cindy stayed with us, (from Arizona) anddid the most selfless act of caretaking for her I have ever seen. Asante Hospice shouldalso be credited largely in the last week.Born in Baker City, Oregon, she graduated high school there and moved to Portland.She graduated with a Bachelors Degree from Eastern Oregon University. She workedfor Meyer Memorial Trust from 1982 until the start of 2014. Then we retired andmoved to Medford a year ago.She is survived by her husband, Michael and son Alexander. My side includes, brotherBarry and his wife Gayle and other brother Richard. Her side is brothers and sisters,Leo, Carol, Jack, Linda, Donna, Ivan, Cindy, Todd, Wade and their families.Her wishes were to be cremated and ashes put out to sea. Terry, I will always love you.
From our son Alex,To those of you who knew my mom: please don't be offended if she didn't tell youabout the cancer. She was a very private person and never wanted others to worry.To those who didn't know my mom: she was amazing. She was a feminist before hertime- the primary income earner who made triple my Dad in the height ofher career,while never leaving the good work of the non-profit world.She was a sci-fi nerd-part of that one percentile that un-ironically watchedSharknado...both a Trekkie and a Whovian. She would often spend Saturdays doinglatch-hook or crochet with some terrible made-for-TV movie in the background.She always prioritized travel and valued new experiences. She loved sushi andfruitcake and avoided most vegetables parents try and make their kids eat.Most importantly, my mom never approved of funerals and the societal obligationof sorrow around death. She felt death should be followed by a celebration of life inappreciation for who and what you still have. So thank you friends and remainingfamily for everything wonderful you contribute to my life.

"Across the state, districtsapproached it differently,"she said. 'We'll be learningabout which ones did whatand picking their brains fora couple of months to come."

Those results can be compared to last year's scores,Palmer said.

Deputy Superintendent Salam Noor of theOregon Department ofEducation said in a pressrelease issued Thursdaythat she was encouragedby the scores, which were10 percent higher thanexpected.

1Cycle Oregon's first visit to Baker County since
2008 didn't go as intended.Like so much else this summer, the week-long
event that brought 2,200 bicyclists and a couplehundred support workers to the county was affectedby wildfire.
The Dry Gulch fire, specifically, which was ignitedSaturday afternoon when a driver lost control ofhispickup truck on Eagle Creek Road near New Bridge
and crashed, sparking a vehicle fire that spread intothe parched grass and brush beside the road.
Over the next few days the blaze burned across
18,000 acres and forced dozens of residents in theEagle and Pine valleys to evacuate.
Cycle Oregon rolled out of Baker City on Sundaymorning, and aker overnight stays at Farewell BendState Park Sunday and Cambridge, Idaho, Monday,
riders were scheduled to pedal into Halfway to spendTuesday night.
The Dry Gulch fire foiled that plan.Cycle Oregon oKcials canceled the Halfway stay
as well as the overnight camps planned for Wednesday and Thursday at Wallowa Lake.
Some riders were disappointed, of course, about being deprived of the chance to ride through the grandscenery of the Wallowas.
And Halfway and Joseph missed one of the summer's big events.
But Cycle Oregon made the wise choice.No recreational event is so important as to justify
potentially interfering with the task of putting out awildfire that threatens homes and lives.
No doubt the riders regret missing Halfway.And we're certain many in Halfway were cha
grined to learn that bicyclists wouldn't temporarilyboost their town's population by almost tenfold.
But Cycle Oregon will return.And thanks to the work of firefighters — with
a timely assist from a couple of rainstorms — thebeautiful country that lured the riders to BakerCounty will stay unsullied.

Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:
The federal government's wildfirefunding is a time bomb that makeswildfire season worse.
The U.S. Forest Service's firefighting budget continues to spiral up as apercentage year after year. It was 16percent of the Forest Service budgetin 1995. This year, it is expected to hitmore than 50 percent.
The Forest Service doesn't get moremoney as fighting wildfires drainsits budget. It takes money away fromother Forest Service programs. It's hadto do it almost every year since 2000.
It means the federal government

Itcan't do enough of the kind of researchit should to learn more about how toprevent and manage fires. It can't doenough of the projects it wants to thinor treat the forest to reduce the probability of catastrophic fires.
Although less critical than protecting lives, property and wildlife fromwildfire, projects planned to improvetrails and other facilities in the forestalso can't be done. In Oregon in 2013,m ore than $560,000 in trails projectswere deferred because the money wasneeded to fight wildfires, according tothe U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Students loans shouldn't cut Social Securitywhich hovers at $703 billion. Twothirds of student-loan debt is owed bypeople under the age of 40, but $18.2billion of it is owed by those 65 or older,according to the Government Accountability Office.
Some seniors are in this position, notbecause they were fiscally irresponsible but because of medical calamity.Medical bills are blamed for more than60 percent of personal bankruptcies.Unlike other forms of debt, however,student loans cannot be absolved bybankruptcy; balances chase borrowersto the grave.
Federal loans are discharged upondeath, but that's small consolation tothose who watch balances rise andinterest accrue even when they become
n
Editorial from the Pittsburgh PostGazette:
Student loan debt dogs not justyoung people, but an increasingnumber of retirees. Some 700,000Americans on Social Security are stillpaying on student loans, and last yearthe government garnished a portionof disability and retirement paymentsdue nearly 160,000 people with education debt.
The statistics show that the studentloan problem transcends generationallines and that any solution must include some measure of forgiveness forseniors oflimited means.
With $1.2 trillion in such debt hanging over the country, the student loantotal has surpassed credit-card debt,
unable to work. In one particularlyoutrageous case, the government isgarnishing a portion of the SocialSecurity check of an 80-year-old withAlzheimer's disease.
Proposals put forth by PresidentBarack Obama and assorted presidential candidates vary in their calls forloan forgiveness. The federal government has $18 trillion of debt all itsown and can't afford to pay everyone'spast-due tuition — nor should it. Butto dun the elderly, particularly thosewith limited means or severe healthimpairments, is unduly harsh publicpolicy. Old age has enough insults allits own; student-loan debt shouldn't beone of them.
It's irresponsible to pay for wildfiresthis way.
But Oregon's delegation has not succeeded in convincing other members ofCongress to do something about it.
Of course, wildfire funding is not theonly problem in federal forest management. It is an immediate one with someagreement in Congress on a solution.Bills in both the House and Senatewould pay for the biggest wildfires likethe natural disasters they are and noteat away at other programs.
That solution makes sense. PresidentBarack Obama has been supportive.Get it done, Oregon delegation.

Not long after my wife lamentedthe loss ofher tomatoes to theneighborhood mule deer, I happened to hear, on a morning radiocomedy program, a reference to"predator pee."
I sensed a potential solutionwhich would be simpler, albeit morearomatic, than erecting 10-footfences.
Whether Predator Pee ranks asthe most prolific purveyor of thissubstance I can't say.
But its competitors would have togo a fair piece to m atch the Predator Pee website — www.predatorpee.com, of course — for sheerentertainment.
JAYSONJACOBY
When I scroll through the siteand try to imagine how it cameto be, I envision a group of peoplesitting around a seedy apartment,tossing around ideas rather likethe joke writers for Conan O'Brienor Jimmy Fallon. There's a laptopon the kitchen table, surroundedby empty beer bottles and greasestained pizza boxes, and occasionally somebody types in an especiallycomical line.
The humor on predatorpee.com,as you probably have guessed, landssolidly on the juvenile end of thespectrum.
Puns abound.The best of these is "pee-rimeter"
— the pest-free zone you can createby sprinkling the urine of yourchoice around whatever it is youwant to protect.
The company's motto, as it were,is "Bringing pee to the people since1986."
Remember that year the nexttime someone contends the Reaganera was a repressive time.
The company's line is not limitedto urine. This is something of arelief.
But even the non-pee parts ofthe catalog involve other animalbyproducts.
The company — its official nameis Maine Outdoor Solutions — alsosells authentic wool crusher hats.So far as I can tell this is the outfit'sonly item that involves, or requires,sheep.
Also available is BearGuard,which isn't what you probably thinkit is, what with all the previousurine references.
In fact BearGuard is a waterrepellent for boots. It is, however,m ade from "real bear fat." I don'tdoubt this keeps the rain from soaking your socks. But extracting itfrom the bear must be a more, well,irreversible process than collectingursine urine. Which, rest assured,is also available if your gardenm arauders are particularly fearfulofbears.
Jokes aside, Predator Pee exemplifies the essential vigor of capitalism, and its existence proves that ina free market pretty much anythingcan be turned into a profit.
Indeed, these clever iconoclastsfrom Maine peddle urine as a way
to attract as well as repel wildlife.Pee, the company claims, will lure
butterflies, because it's an essentialsource of sodium and other vital elements for these graceful flyers.
The website boasts about thiswith the sort of breathless enthusiasm typical of online marketing,although the insertion of a singleword (the one just before "business")transforms an otherwise predictable sentence:
'%e have been in the urine business a long time, but we always getexcited when we discover a newuse for this incredibly renewableresource!"
You won't read that at the Harvard Business School.
The ultimate question, of course,is how Predator Pee obtains its rawmaterials. I'll leave the details tothe website, but suffice it to say theexplanation is mundane.
The company does not, as I hadhoped, employ a battalion of shortpeople with quick hands who canmove fast even while wearinggaloshes.

A week after announcingthat a ticket had been issuedfor last spring's Tumalo Fallsvandalism case, the U.S. Attorney's Office has releasedhow much the Washingtonman ticketed paid in penaltyand repair costs.
Scott G. Duke, 57, of Bothell, Washington, paid a $50fine and $150 in restitution,Gerri Badden, spokeswomanfor the U.S. Attorney's Offlcein Oregon wrote in an emailthis morning.
The ticket was for aidingand abetting damage to anatural feature or other property of the United States.Documents released Tuesdayshow Duke's wife lives inBend.
Last Wednesday the U.S.Attorney's Offlce announcedthat a federal ticket had beenissued in the case, and that afine and restitution had beenpaid. At the time it did notdisclose the name of who wasticketed, or the amounts forthe fine and restitution. Afterdiscussions between officialsat the U.S. Attorney's Officeand the Central ViolationsBureau — a national centerin Washington, D.C., holdingdocuments for violationsthe U.S. Attorney's Office lastThursday released a redacted copy of the ticket.
While the ticket gaveDuke's name, his city ofresidence was not listed andno information was givenabout the amount of the fineor restitution. After furtherdiscussions between the U.S.Attorney's Office and theCentral Violations Bureau,the U.S. Attorney's OfficeMonday released a document listing Duke's city ofresidence and a descriptionof what led a U.S. Forest Service law enforcement offlcerto ticket Duke.

Klamath Sheriff's ONce banned fromhomicide cases aRer sheriff indicted
KLAMATH FALLS iAPl — The Klamath CountySherifFs Offlce has been temporarily removed fromhomicide investigations due to ongoing criminal and civilproceedings involving Sheriff Frank Skrah.
The Herald and News reports District Attorney RobPatridge says the decision has been made to ensurehomicide investigations would not be affected by issuessurrounding the sherifFs office. The removal will ensurethe allegations against Skrah don't hinder the county'sability to prosecute homicide suspects, he said.
The sherifFs offlce normally contributes two detectives and a supervisor in an investigation. According toa memo sent Monday, the Oregon State Police will nowtake over the homicide investigations.
Skrah was indicted Friday following allegations heused excessive force against inmates. He faces nine misdemeanor charges.
Oregon State Police forensic analystaccused of tampering with drug evidence
nal cases is being reviewed following accusations that aforensic analyst with the Oregon State Police tamperedwith drug evidence.
The analyst, who worked at the agency's lab in Bend,was placed on leave earlier this month, reported The Oregonian Wednesday. The woman has not been identified,but agency spokesman Lt. Bill Fugate confirmed she isunder investigation over the handling of drug evidence.
The discovery of misconduct puts current cases andconvictions in doubt and could cost counties thousands toretest and retry cases. Families of victims and defendantswill also be affected as prior cases are called into question.
"My concern is for the victims who were injuredmaking them whole," said Deschutes County DistrictAttorney John Hummel."And for the suspects, that theyhad the proper result. This crime strikes at the heart ofour justice system."State police notified district attorneys across the state
on Friday and issued lists detailing the affected cases.Hummel said he must retest the evidence in 502 cases
dating back to 2012. The majority of cases with evidenceworked by the technician are from Eastern Oregon.
Portland residents rally to stop developerfrom cutting three 150-foot sequoias
PORTLAND iAPl — A Portland neighborhood is rallying around three big sequoias that a developer plans tocut down.Neighbors have gathered at the base of the 150-foot
trees since Monday, when a crew hired by the developerarrived with chainsaws. On Thursday, police removedseveral protesters from the property. But an environmental activist remained suspended on a platform from oneof the trees.
Police spokesman Sgt. Pete Simpson says the activistcould be arrested ifhe does not come down and wouldface criminal trespass charges.
Robert McCullough is president of the EastmorelandNeighborhood Association. He says the neighbors havebeen negotiating with the developer for months to buythe property, but were unable to raise the $900,000sought by Everett Customs Homes.
Developer Vic Remmers couldn't immediately bereached for comment.

By Joshua Dillen]dillen©bakercityherald.com
Baker County Commissioners didnot adopt an updated Natural Resources Plan iNRPl that has been in theworks for several months at Wednesday's meeting.
The Natural Resources AdvisoryCommittee iNRAClvoted last week torecommend its adoption to the Commission.
Commissioner Tim Kerns made amotion to adopt the plan if the sectionon energy was removed. It was notseconded by Commission Chair BillHarvey. Commissioner Mark Bennettwas absent from the meeting.
"I'm just not comfortable voting forit," Kerns said.
Harvey said the section on energywas a limited one because the Planning Commission is still developing anenergy section.
''We kind of wanted to wait until they
are done with their plans," he said."iThe current energy section) is a placeholder and there's not much in it."
Harvey explained that the NRACrecommended that it should be adoptedas is and changes could be made later.
NRAC Chair Doni Bruland said itwas a living document that could bechanged and revised as needed in thefuture.
Kerns said he felt alternative energyshould be defined in the document.
In the energy section it states thatit is the intent of the NRP "to directthe development of alternative energysources."It also states "Except for geothermal
development, there will be no development of any alternative energy sourceson forestland."
three fiiends said, 'Let'sgo,"' Defense Secretary AshCarter said.
Carter said their rallying cry recalled the stirringwords of those aboard the
Kerns expressed again that he wouldvote to approve the plan if the energysection he felt was unclear were to beremoved.
Lime Windfarm owner Randy Josephasked how the NRP — if approvedwould affect projects like his in thefuture.
Harvey referred to the energy sectionthat states that the policy of BakerCounty is "there will be no development of any energy sources that donot directly benefit the residents of theCounty."
''What does that mean?" Joseph
asked.Harvey referred to the Idaho Power
Boardman to Hemingway Power LineProject iB2Hl and said that is whatBennett added.
"If it is just passing through, such asthe B2H plan, then there is no benefit,but there is harm," Harvey said.Joseph said these projects do pay
property tax, which would be a directbenefit to the County.
He then asked Harvey ifhe was saying he interprets electrons as a directbenefit and not property taxes.Harvey said 'That is correct, sir."Joseph then urged Kerns to oppose
the NRP in its current form."That's like telling Baker cattlemen
that we can only eat the beef that yougrow. This makes no sense whatsoeverin terms of utilizing the resources thatare in Baker County," he said.
Harvey made a motion to adopt theplan as written. Kerns did not secondit.
"The process will go back to the nextscheduled meeting," Harvey said.
Harvey and Bruland have bothexplained at previous meetings that a
hijacked airliner on 9/11 whoshouted,"Let's roll," beforecharging the cockpit andforcing the plane to crash ina Pennsylvania field beforeit could reach its intended
key aspect of the NRP is that it allowsthe County to engage in a federallym andated coordination process thatrequires federal agencies to work withlocal governments to achieve consistency between federal land use planningand management and local land useplans and policies.
The NRAC plan states that thiscoordination requires state and federalagencies to negotiate policies withlocal governments rather than merelyinforming local governments of theirplans or decisions regarding land use.It also requires them to do more thanjust soliciting comments from the localgovernments.
"This is a document that is a workingplan so that we can work off of iitl andwork with the government agenciesand so they have got something in frontof them," Harvey said.
The NRP can be found at BakerCounty's website at http J/bakercounty.org/¹.

The district will continue to employ strategiesdeveloped over the pastseven years in its RTI, orResponse to Intervention,reading program to targetimprovement.
"RTI catches earlyproblems that in the pastwe would wait months toaddress," Palmer said.
Under the early intervention system, students aregiven quick assessmentsthree times a year to evaluate their skills and to checktheir progress in specificareas, she said.
The program, whichwas started for studentsin Grades K-3 at BrooklynSchool has expanded toGrades K-6 at all elementary schools in the district.
Math improvement willbe addressed in the sameway starting this year,Palmer said.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.Peyton Manning and theDenver Broncos have beatenthe Kansas City Chiefs everyway imaginable over theyears, from playofF shootoutsto defensive tug-of-wars.
Well, not quite every way.Not until Thursday night.
Denver cornerback Bradley Roby returned JamaalCharles' second fumble 21yards for a touchdown with27 seconds left, completinga stunning comeback in theclosing minute for a 31-24victory — the Broncos' seventh straight over their AFCWest rivals.
"I'm not quite sure I'd everbeen in one quite like that,"Manning said."That was anew one."
Manning threw for 256yards and three scores, thelast to Emmanuel Sanderswith 36 seconds left as theBroncos i2-Ol appeared toforce overtime. But on thenext play from scrimmage,with the Chiefs i1-1l alsoeyeing overtime, Charles wasstripped by Brandon Marshall and the ball bouncedright into Roby's hands.
The dramatic about-facecame after Knile Davis gaveKansas City the lead with2:27 left on an 8-yard run,raising hope among a sellout
game.
AT A GLANCE
Baker kickers falltwice at Umatilla
boys and girls soccerteams lost to Umatilla ina pair of nonleague soccer matches Tuesday.
Baker (0-3) lost theboys match 4-0. TheBulldogs have yet toscore this season.
Baker (0-3) droppedthe girls match 2-1.
The Baker girls travelto Boardman today toplay Riverside.
Both Baker teams willplay their home openers Sept. 24 when theyhost Ontario in a pair ofGreater Oregon Leaguematches.
BroncosstunKansas icrowd that the Chiefs mightfinally end some curses.
Instead, Denver won its13th straight division roadgame, breaking a tie with theSan Francisco 49ers i198790l for most in NFL history.And for one night, Manningquieted his growing doubtersby improving to 14-1 in hiscareer against the Chiefs.
"I've been involved in
a couple of pretty crazygames," he said, "but nothingquite like this."
Charles finished with125 yards rushing and atouchdown, but he will onlyremember his fumblesone in the red zone early inthe game, the other deep inhis own territory late in the
"I have to be careful withthe ball," Charles said."It'smy fault."
Alex Smith threw for 191yards for Kansas City, butalso had two passes pickedofK
''We thought we had itwon," Davis said."Unfortunately, they made the touchdown and it was our time toovercome and win the game,and we couldn't finish. It wasan emotional rollercoaster."
Manning threw a pick-sixof his own, but he respondedwhen it mattered the most.
The Broncos took overat their own 20 after Davis
had given Kansas City thelead, and the seven-time AllPro marched them calmlydown field. Manning foundDemaryius Thomas for threelong receptions to get deepinto Chiefs territory, then hitSanders with a strike overthe middle on third-and-10from the Chiefs 19 for thetouchdown that kept Denveralive.
"That last drive wasreally good," said Manning, who joined BrettFavre during the game asthe only quarterbacks inNFL history with at least70,000 yards passing. "I'mreally proud of our youngoffensive line — no poiseissues, no communicationissues."
The late-game dramaticstranspired after the Chiefsbolted to a 14-0 lead intheir home-opener, energizing a boisterous, redclad crowd that had beentailgating all afternoon.
But like he has so oftenagainst the Chiefs, Manning answered by leadingDenver on an 80-yard TDmarch late in the first half.The capper was a passover the middle to Sanders, who slipped betweenthe safeties and somersaulted into the end zonefor the 16-yard touchdownreception.

Smith said that eventhough Verizon customers in Baker City mighthave adequate reception,the company's engineershave determined thatthese new towers areneeded to increase datacapacity and allow moreusers access to Verizon'snetwork.Smith cited several sta
tistics that showed cellphone use is increasing.She said that 70 percentof 911 calls come fromcellphones and that moreand more households arerelying on wireless meansto get their Internet.
Later in the meeting Baker City residentDavey Peterson — wholives next to one of theproposed cell towersites — asked if thosestatistics were local ornational. Smith concededthey were not local.
"As most of us know,Baker County is kind ofan anomaly," Petersonsaid.
He explained thatBaker County and Cityresidents already haveaccess to the internet andsome still use DSL.
Smith said she understands not everybodywants a cell tower intheir backyard.
"But at the same timeeverybody wants theircellphones to work andare becoming more andmore dependent onthem," she said. "Not justto pick up the phone tocall someone, but to use

Several residentstestified that the 100-foottowers would be visualpollution and detractfrom the scenic viewsthat they enjoy.
Whit Deschner hadanother name for it.
"It's not a necessity; it'sdigital pollution," he said.
Deschner also pointedout the number of peoplein attendance who wereopposed to the cell tow
"I think that speaks foritself," he said.
Smith could not answerspecific questions fromthe planning commissioners regarding technicalreasons for the installation of the towers.
Before making a decision about the projectsproposed by Verizon, commissioners want moreinformation about theproject from the consulting firm.
The Commissioncontinued the publichearings until its nextmeeting on Sept. 21 at 7

Fire crews slowed theblaze Saturday evening, buton Sunday morning strongwesterly winds fanned theflames and pushed the firepast a line of fire retardantand beyond several miles tothe east.
Several dozen residents inEagle and Pine valleys wereput on evacuation notices,but cooler weather and rainshowers that started Mondayhelped crews get a handle onthe blaze.
No homes were burned,and on Thursday the Sheriff's Office canceled the lastevacuation notice.
A resident who lives nearwhere Nash's truck crashedreported the accident topolice, and Deputy CraigRilee arrived about 4 p.m. onSaturday, Ash said.
Rilee noted that when hearrived, Nash, who was nothurt in the crash and got outof the truck before the firespread, was sitting beside theroad and drinking a beer.
But Nash denied that hehad drunk any alcohol beforethe crash. And Ash said Rileeconcluded that Nash was notimpaired at the time Rileeinterviewed him.
Nash told Rilee he wasdriving to meet fiiends whowere on a hunting trip andcamping in the area.
Rilee wrote in his reportthat there was no evidenceto prove Nash was drivingrecklessly, Ash said.
"Craig has investigated alot of wrecks, and I trust hisjudgment,"Ash said.
The firefighting costsfor the Dry Gulch fire hadreached $1.5 million byThursday, according to theOregon Department ofForestry.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 2015YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella WilderBorn today, you are likely to develop your
own inimitable style while still quite young,and maintain that style throughout your lifetime, with only a fewvery briefperiods whenyou try something new and different for the
sake of variety, exploration and learning. Nomatter how fascinating you may find another's way oflife, however, you will surely returnto your own — that with which you are mostcomfortable, and which is likely to bring youthe greatest possible rewards, both professionally and personally. It does you no lastinggood to try to be someone else; to beyourself
is the greatest possible reward you can giveyourself. Every day, you will reap the benefitsofhonest and sincere living.

likely to happen in quick succession, andyou're going to have to keep your head as youstrive to persevere.

CHILE EARTHQUAIt',EMan overcomes disabilities,but not high school prejudice
15 months. I know he has three sisters and abrother. All he has said is they are not closeand he doesn't keep in touch with them.There are no cards at holiday time, no phonecalls or any mention of any of them (thereare nieces and nephews, too), and no explanation about why they don't talk.Should I be concerned that he doesn't
share any of this with me? He has beenvery involved with my entirefamily, but I have never met a
ABBY — KEPT IN THE DARKIN MASSACHUSETTS
DEAR KEPT IN THEDARK After 15 months of dating, youshould be able to discuss this with himand get some honest answers. There areprobably good reasons why this man andhis family are estranged. They may havebeen abusive to him, or he may be the blacksheep of the family. But you will never knowunless you ask directly.
DEAR ABBY: Last year Igave my new(at that time) girlfriend, "Alyssa,"a pair ofearrings for her birthday. They were in a boxfrom a department store marked "Pnej ewelry."She loved them and became emotionalin expressing hergratitude. Ithoughtitwasbecause it was the ftrst piece ofj ewelry I hadever bought for her.W hen she opened the box I explained that
they were her birthstone — sapphires — butwhite sapphires. In her excitement she musthave missed that part.
The earrings are large — maybe onecarat apiece. Yesterday I overheard mygranddaughter ask Alyssa if they were realdiamonds, and Alyssa told her yes!
I kept my mouth shut when she said it, butnow I understand why she was so excitedwhen she first saw them. She cherishes theearrings and has told me numerous timesshe will never take them off.
I want to make this rig ht, but I'm afraidshe'll feel embarrassed because she musthave told her girlftv'ends and family Igaveher diamond earrings — which I didn't.Abby, what do I do?
— LOVING BOYFRIEND IN VIRGINIADEAR BOYFRIEND: You should
straighten this out with your girlfriend, butdo it privately. After that, let her disclose thefact that her diamond earrings are reallysapphires at her discretion — or not.
DEARABBY: Today was my high schoolreunion. I was the most notable studentfor all the wrong reasons. I was born withsome birth defects and learning disabilities.I overcame them, but it was hard. Whileworking blue-collarjobs, Ilivedin my car fora few years.
On a cold winter night several yearsago, I met Dr. Xin the emergency room. Hewas a former classmate ofmine, and we pretendednot to know one another. Hediscovered I was living in mycar and heard some of mystory. Then he arranged forme to be admitted to the hospitalfor a dayso I could get warmed up and recover. WhenI left the hospital, I found a $100 bill in thegas tank door ofmy van. I'm sureit wasfrom him.
Inow have a home ofmy own andI'mdoing OK considering everything. When Isent my reservation and check to the reunioncommittee, it was returned uncashed witha $50 bill along with a note saying "Pleasedon't come."The reunion was being held onthe estate of Dr. X
I guess my classmates are more closedminded than I thought they would be. I washoping age would mellow them. In additionto the reservation return, I have seen afewforwarded emails mocking my attempts tofi nd out about the event. I hope none of thosepeople were blessed with a child with learning or physical issues.
Iguess people never change on somethings. Thankfully, I have found nicer, caringpeople along myjourney in life, and for thatI'd like to thank all of the kind people in theworld.
DEAR UNEXPECTED SUCCESS: Yourletter shocked me. I am glad to know howyou are doing. Although people age, it's apparent that not all of them mature.
In case you haven't yet realized it, youweren't the only student in your class withproblems. People who would behave as youhave described were obviously born withouta heart. It is inexcusable for you to havebeen treated the way you were. In recognition of the challenges you have overcome,you should have been the guest ofhonor atthe reunion.

HONOLULU — A tsunami advisory was droppedfor Hawaii Thursday, themorning after a powerfulearthquake off Chile. But itremained in effect for parts ofcoastal California.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center first issued a moreserious tsunami watch forHawaii shortly after Wednesday's magnitude-8.3 earthquake. Officiais later downgraded that to an advisory,saying no major tsunami wasexpected in the state.
But they warned that sealevel changes and dangerouscurrents could pose a threatto those in or near the water.
A 3-foot wave was recordedat Hilo Harbor on Hawaii'sBig Island shortly after 4a.m. Thursday, NationalW eather Service forecasterTom Birchard said from hisHonolulu office. He said hehadn't heard of any significant impacts.
Tsunami wave heightsacross Hawaii were belowadvisory levels and continuedto diminish, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said incanceling the advisory.
"Small sea level changesand strong or unusual currents may persist for severaladditional hours in somecoastal areas and appropriate caution should exercisedby boaters and swimmers,"the center said.
In California, a slight oceansurge and powerful currentswere reported at points alongthe entire coast, scientists andlocal officials said.
Ventura Harbor in Southern California experienced a1.1-foot tsunami, while 0.4 footheights were reported in San

DEER RIFLE HUNTING SEASON HUNTING TIPS

The fires that swept acrossswathes of northeastern Oregonthis summer made history.
Never had flames blackenedso many acres, or forced so manyresidents to evacuate.
The fires' effects on wildlife aremore difficult to quantify, at least inthe short term.
But as thousands ofbuck deerhunters prepare for the annual rifleseason that runs Oct. 3-14, a coupleof generalities will come into play,according to wildlife biologists withthe Oregon Department of Fish andWildlife.
Most notably, deer are likely to beabsent, or at least scarce, in areaswhere the fires charred most of thegrass and brush that deer dependon for food.
"Forage will definitely be limited

in those areas," said Justin Primus, assistant district biologist atODFWs Baker City office.
Baker CountyThe Cornet/Windy Ridge Fire,
the biggest in Baker County history,covered almost 104,000 acres, allwithin the Sumpter unit.
Primus points out, though, thatsuch a massive area — 162 squaremiles — still amounts to only about10 percent of the Sumpter unit's
That leaves large chunks ofground for the approximately 1,650Sumpter unit buck hunters tospread out.
"I would expect that most peoplewon't choose to hunt in the burnedarea," Primus said.
Hunters who do, though, mighthave an advantage.
The fire, especially where it burnedhottest, pretty much erased the hiding cover that bucks use when theyfeel threatened, Primus said.

With several wildfires scorching land in northeast Oregon, some hunters could have fewer opportunities to cash in their buck tag

to have the ability to spot whatever's there," he said.
Moreover, hunters who are surveying the fire area won't need tobother looking for deer in the blackened spots. They can concentrateinstead on the islands of unburnedor lightly burned ground, sincethat's where the bucks that haven'tmoved elsewhere are likely to be.
A significant number of deerthat lived in the burned area havemoved, though, and they probablywon't return until next spring.
Primus said he doubts many ofthose deer migrated into a differentunit — Lookout Mountain, for instance, which borders the Sumpterunit to the north.
But some bucks probably movedwest, along the divide between theBurnt and Powder rivers, in partbecause that's excellent winterrange for deer, said Brian Ratliff,head district biologist at the BakerCity office.
The fires could affect buck hunters in a more fundamental way

There are no area or road closures in effect for the Cornet/WindyRidge Fire, but burned trees androcks could temporarily block roadsfor hunters who don't happen tohave a saw or axe.
As of mid-September, the situation was different at the Eagle Complex, which burned about 13,000acres in the Keating unit.Sections of several roads were
still closed there, although thoseclosures might be canceled beforethe buck season starts Oct. 3.
Besides potential road closures,Primus doesn't expect the EagleComplex will have a significant effect on deer populations, or on deerhunters, in the Keating unit.

The Grizzly Bear Complex is them ajor factor here.
But Pat Matthews doesn't thinkthe fire will cause major problemsfor buck hunters in Wallowa County.

tthink people who are successful year after year do two
things that most other huntersdon't do.
They scout.They schedule 10 days to hunt.I'm not saying that you can't
be successful if you don't dothese two things, but you will bea lot more consistent on punching your tags if you do. I thinkthe main reason most peopledon't scout like they shouldis because most poor suckersonly have 10 days of vacation.Ifhe spends a few of those daysscouting and then a week hunting he has no time for his family.So I understand the dilemma,but the more time you canspend on these two items, themore successful you'll be.So let's cover the basics on
how to scout. If you're hunting in your old hunting area, itwon't require as much scouting.You know the lay of the land,how the animals travel, etc., butif there's been a fire or wolveshave moved in, things will be allscrambled up so it will be almostlike starting anew. So it's necessary to at least scout a little biteven in your old hunting spot.
If I'm going to a new area,here's a few things I do.
Get maps. I use MyTopoiTrimblel maps a lot. They makealmost anything that you canimagine. If you study a map,a lot of times you'll figure outwhere the game ought to be.
Next, don't forget to call thelocal game warden and biologist. They can be very helpfuland have helped educate me onthe habits of the local animals,which can vary from place toplace. For instance, this year Idrew an antelope tag in southwest Idaho — right where thefires have been. Where I'll haveto hunt now the antelope behavedifferently and are in totallydifferent terrain than anywherethat I've ever antelope huntedbefore. The local game wardenand biologist really helpededucate me.
One disclaimer on Fish andGame, though: don't expect to goin and have them tell you rightwhere to be on opening day so youcan blast a big bull. A guide doesthat and you pay him $5,500.
Next, you'll have to wear outthe boot leather. I always like tohave three spots in case someone else is in my spot on opening day, the wolves have movedin and spooked everything out oftheir wits or whatever else. Forinstance, once I was supposedto meet a buddy before daylightat a trailhead for a blackpowderhunt. Right when I got there, hesaid we had to move — there'speople walking around only in

Baker County: Archery hunters should find deer and elk around water and cool, moistnorthern aspects. The continuation of warm temperatures will limit animal activity to earlymorning and late evening. Remember to checkthe regulations for the area you will be hunting.
Wallowa County: Bull elk archery hunting was good for the opening weekend in mostunits. Hunters are having to deal with very dly hunting conditions. Buck hunters can expectonly fair success as deer numbers are still below management objective and dly conditions willmake stalking difficult.
Union County: Black bears are plentiful. Look for signs around fruit trees and in canyon bottoms. Bears can be concentrated along creeks and rivers in the late summer. This year's berrycrop is notquite what 20i4was but should still make for good hunting.

DEER RIFLE HUNTING SEASON
Whitetail-Rillinguirushasdeenfoundin Saker Countv
More rain would help, butcurrent prospects not grim
Union CountyHunters in Union County
don't have to deal withnearly the aftermath offires as Baker and Wallowacounty hunters do, and therainfall that has come in recent weeks, though not a lot,definitely helps conditions."It's a good start," said
Leonard Erickson, ODFWbiologist in La Grande."I goout and look at my pastureat home iandl stuff that wasdry is starting to green up.Should we get some morerain this week and thetemperatures stay relativelywarm, it'll make for somegood fall regrowth for deer."
Erickson said the weatherchange is definitely benefitting the archery hunterswho are currently out in thefield, and that should carryover into next month, whenroughly 1,800 rifle hunterswill step into the Starkey,Catherine Creek and EastMount Emily units, thethree main units in UnionCounty.
"Right now in terms ofrifle buck season, it's squaring away to be a potentiallydecent season," he said.
He warned, however,that October is a bit of anunknown insofar as whatthe weather will do.
"October can turn hot anddry and dusty," he said.
Overall numbers in theStarkey, East Mount Emilyand Catherine Creek unitsare below managementobjective, but the buck ratiosin each are close to average.
Starkey deer huntershead into the season lookingat a buck ratio of 12 bucksper 100 does, a numberdown from recent yearsand below the M.O. of 15.Catherine Creek is right atthe M.O. of 16 bucks per 100and slightly ahead oflastyear, and East Mount Emilyis right at the M.O. of15bucks per 100 does.

The drought that hasdeepened over EasternOregon during the past twoyears has done deer huntersno favors.
From wildfires that havelimited access, to forests andrangelands littered withdesiccated grass and brushthat makes a cacophonywith every step, the drystretch poses potentialproblems for hunters whodrew a buck tag for the Oct.3-14 season.
Baker CountyBut the situation isn't al
together dismal for huntersin Baker County.
Certainlymost hunterswould be grateful shoulda couple of au~ rai nstorms arrive before the season begins in two weeks.
If nothing else themoisture would soften, andquiet, the generally crunchyconditions in the woods andmake for better stalking.
But even if the weatherfails to cooperate, buck numbers have been increasingin three of the county's fourunits — Lookout Mountain,Keating and Pine Creek,said Justin Primus, assistant district wildlife biologist at the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife'sBaker City office.
The number of tagsODFW has sold reflectsthose population trends.
The Keating unit's allocation, for instance, has risenfrom 450 in 2014 to 550this year.
Rifle hunters mightbenefit, Primus said, fiom theproblems that have plaguedarchery hunters.
A combination of poorstalking conditions andwidespread road and areaclosures due to wildfireprobably has resulted inlower-than-average success among archery deerhunters.
"And any bucks thatdon't get harvested duringthe archery season will beavailable for rifle hunters,"Primus said. Deer herdsin Baker County's biggestunit — Sumpter — haven'tfared quite as well as in thethree other units the pastcouple years. And wildfiresburned far more acres onthe Sumpter unit than onthe others.
Still, ODFW has boostedtag numbers for the Sumpter unit, and Primus expectsbuck hunters will have agood chance to fill their tagsnext month.
If dry, warm weatherpersists, bucks probably willroam less widely than usualand instead stay close to thefew reliable water sources.
Wallowa County
While the rain that hasdescended on northeastOregon in recent weeks isdefinitely a welcome sight,hunters preparing for thedeer rifle season, whichbegins Oct. 3, couldn't necessarily be considered greedyif they wanted more.
"If during the buckseason we have cooler, moistweather, it always helpsthe hunters in that regard,"said Pat Matthews, ODFWbiologist in Enterprise."Itjust makes hunters' successgo up a little bit."
That's partially becauseany additional moisturehelps stalking abilities sothat hunters aren't crunching through the WallowaCounty wilderness whensearching for prey.
'The rain at this pointmainly just helps huntersbe quieter in the woods,but if we have another two

~
weeks of dry weather, it isn'tgoing to make a difference,"Matthews said.
The recent rain indeedhelps, but with the seasonstill two weeks away, Matthews said it's hard to judgewhat the conditions will belike when the hunt begins.
"Especially since we don'tknow what the next coupleof weeks are going to bring,"he said.
There is potential for agood buck season in WallowaCounty, as the buck-per-doeratio is at or above management objective in five of thecounty's six units, and actualnumbers are likely evenhigher than the ratios, whichwere taken last year.
'This fall during the buckseason we have a higherratio ofbucks because thatfigure doesn't account forthe yearling bucks that willbe available this October,"Matthews explained.
He added, however, thatit's more difficult to say howmany deer will actuallybe available, as the officegauges only the ratios andnot the full deer population.
The ratios in Sled Springsi12 bucks per 100 does),Chesnimnus i12 per 100land Snake River i25 per100l are all at the m anagement objective, while Wenaha i13 per 100l and Imnahai17 per 100l are both abovemanagement objective. Onlythe Minam unit i20 per 100lis currently below managem ent objective.
Those numbers bode wellfor the roughly 4,500 riflehunters who will descendon the Wallowa units in thecoming weeks.Also of note, black bear
season began Aug. 1 in Wallowa County.
aWe've had a number ofbears that have been takenby hunters," he said."Hunters have been seeing bearsand harvesting some bears."

A virus that kills deerand for which whitetailsare especially susceptibleso far seems to be confinedto a small section of BakerCounty.
Lab tests at Oregon StateUniversity confirmed thatEpizootic HemorrhagicDisease recently killed atleast one whitetail deer inBaker Valley a few mileswest of Baker City, saidJustin Primus, assistantdistrict wildlife biologist atthe Oregon Department ofFish and Wildlife's BakerCity office.
Residents along the edge ofthe valley where it meets theElkhorn Mountains have reported at least a dozen otherdead whitetails over the pastmonth, Primus said.
None of those carcasseshad obvious wounds fromeither a predator attack, abullet or an arrow, he said.
He suspects EHD killedthose deer as well.
Primus said the possibleoutbreak of the virus, whichis spread by midges, a type ofbiting fly, shouldn't affect therifle deer-hunting season thatruns fiom Oct. 3-14.
Mule deer can also contractEHD fiom the bite of midges,but there have been no confirmed cases of the virus inmule deer, Primus said.
EHD outbreaks happenoccasionallyin Oregon but thediseaseis not commonin thestate, said Colin Gillin, ODFW'sstate wildlife veterinarian.
"Mule deer can get it,and we had an outbreak inblacktail deer near Roseburglast year, but it's principallya disease of whitetail deer,"Gillin said.
The virus is spread only byinsect bites — deer can't beinfected through contact withother deer or animals.
Mule deer are byfar themost common deer species inmost of Eastern Oregon.

There are whitetail herdsin Baker, Union and Wallowacounties.
In Baker County, most ofthe whitetails live along thebase of the Elkhorns west andnorthwest of Baker City.
Significant outbreaks ofEHD are more common instates with large populationsof whitetail deer, Gillin said.
The virus isn't confined toeastern states, though.
In 2003 EHD killed anestimated 150 to 200 deeralong the Clearwater Riverin Northern Idaho.
The virus can also infectpronghorn antelope and,more rarely, elk or moose.

Department of NaturalResources.
The timing is not a coincidence, Gillin said.
During late summerespecially in a drought yearsuch as 2015 — deer tend tocongregate around the relatively few water sources.
Those areas also tend to bebreeding grounds for midges,Gillin said. If the midgeshappen to be carrying EHD,an outbreak is possible.
The virus can kill deer injusta couple of days, Gillin said.
EHD poses no threat topeople or to cats or dogs because they can't contract thevirus through midges, he said.
Nor can people become illby eating the meat of a deeror other animal that hascontracted EHD.

GrousehuntingLOCAL MAN HAS A PASSION HE /n /mng's /gng
WesCom News Servicehas also guided youth waterfowl hunts in the La Grandearea, started guiding officialhunts under Saunders'license.
Carlson said he has guided30 to 40 official hunts, mostlyin the Tri-Cities area, with afew others scattered aroundthe state of Oregon.
Next month, he'll guide ahunt through S2 Outfittersout of Scappoose.
"I talked to the owneriEric Strand) and he donateda hunt to Oregon HuntersAssociation," Carlson said.''With the hunt associated,I told him I would do all theguiding.
Carlson will work ofFofStrand's license, a requirement only for an official hunt.
"As long as you are guidingofFof someone else's license,the only requirement washaving a first aid and CPRcard," Carlson explained.'The only other requirementsthat I know of is I know howto hunt and deal with theclients. Between Bill andEric, they know me, know Ican get people on birds andhave successful hunts."
Out in the field
Part ofhaving a successfulhunt, Carlson said, is figuring out where the birds are.
"One of the most important parts for m e is scoutingthe birds and knowing wherethey are going to be," he said.'You have to know where theanimals want to be."
When he guides new hunters, Carlson will scout theprospective sites in advance.
On the day of the hunt,Carlson meets with the hunters well before sunrise to headto the hunt site. From therethe group sets up decoys anda layout blind — which is essentially in-field camouflage— all to be ready by sun-up.
"The birds should be flying shortly thereafter," hesaid. From there the processincludes "calling the birdsinto the decoys, adjusting thedecoys one way or the otheriandl calling the shots for theclients."
Chad Carlson, center, has been hunting waterfowl for close to 25 years and guiding hunts for about a decade. Herehe is shown with GarrettVaughn, left, and Kole Carlson, as the hunters show off their ducks from a 2014 hunt.
By Ronald Bond
For Island City residentChad Carlson, waterfowlhunting is an experienceworth sharing.
So much so that he hastaken to guiding huntsduring the past decade or sowhen the opportunity arises.
"I've got so much out of
waterfowling that I'd like toget other people involved andhave them experience thesame thing," Carlson said.
But the experience, orwhat even classifies as a successful hunt, he explained,can be more than just gettinga goose or a duck.
The people can make allthe difference.
'The majority of the time,even if we don't kill a limitofbirds, we have enoughaction and camaraderie thatwe have a good time," hesaid."There's not too manyihuntsl that are just absolutefailures."
Getting into the hunt
A big part of why Carlsonled hunts typically resultin hunters bringing birdshome is that he has closeto 25 years of experience todraw trom — even though hedidn't start out as a waterfowl hunter.
"It was something I saw onTV in the hunting shows," hesaid."I didn't grow up doingit. I just kind of picked it upin college."
But he became enthralledby it, and soaked up all theinformation he could gatherfrom hunting shows, videosand magazines.
From calling into guiding"Eventually I got into, I
guess you'd call it, the sportof competitive duck andgoose calling," he said.
Through the world ofbirdcalls, he became connectedwith Bill Saunders, a calldesigner trom Kennewick,Washington, who at the timewas working for Pacific WingsWaterfowl Adventures out ofWest Richland, Washington.
Eventually, Carlson, who

The spoils of a good day in the field.
The action isn't always hotand heavy, which allows timeto build camaraderie as well.
"There's definitely slowtimes out in the field," hesaid."It's not always justabout the killing part, it'sabout the time spent out inthe field and having fun withyour triends.n
But the entire experienceis made seeing the reaction ofa new hunter bagging a birdfor the first time.
"Anytime I get a kid outthere for the first time andwatch him shoot his first gooseor first duck, that to me standsout," Carlson said."I have akid that I took out when hewas 11or 12, and he's 19 now.He still talks about the firstgoose he shot with me."
For the love of hunting
Carlson has gone backand forth on getting his ownlicense to guide hunts butsaid La Grande's locationdoesn't necessarily result ingood waterfowl hunting.
"I've thought about it," he
said."The one thing aboutthis valley, we're not in amajor flyway. A lot of thebirds out here are local birds.I couldn't always guaranteea successful hunt. There's notthe flyway or water and foodsources."

Plus, he's never been in itfor any sort of profit.
"I don't guide people reallyfor a living," he said."I'vem ade money, but as far as m etaking people out, I do it justfor the love of the sport."And for bringing people
into an activity he has gottenso much out of.
"I enjoy being out there,and when a hunt comestogether where you can shootlimits of geese or ducks, thatis always fun, and seeingthe satisfaction of peoplewho haven't experiencedthat," he said."Being able toshow people what's made mesuccessful is just personalsatisfaction."

They called it Imna'sland. The word"ha" indicated land controlled by a chief.Thus, Imnaha meant, andmeans, Imna's land, and aperson that stands on oneof those high ridges gets asense of what the chief musthave felt when he stood ona high place and looked outover his domain.
We stood on a high placeand talked to a fellow whomans the fire lookout towerthere. He told us that, inall his years at the lookout,this has been his secondquietest fire year since 1993— "which was a wet year,with a lot of rain throughthe summer, not like thisyear — so dry and hot. It'sbeen quiet here, in my littlecorner of Oregon."
My friend James Flaherty and his son Isaacand I were there to scoutfor mule deer, to snifF fortracks around water holesand look into the canyonswith the long glass. Butdeer were hard to find andthere were grouse in largenumbers, more grouse thanI'd ever seen before.
They must have beenblue grouse. Ruffeds, inmy experience, are usuallyfound a bit lower, down inthe canyons.
By the time we'd talked tothe lookout, both Isaac andI had three grouse apiecefor the day. This was the13-year-old's first grousehunt, and it was shaping upto be one to remember.
It must have been thisway in Imna's time. Thekids in the tribe would havehunted grouse with slingsand stones and bows and arrows. Once they had successand had brought some tastybirds back to the wickiup,

Isaac's first bird came easy.We arrived in late
afternoon and had timefor a quick hunt through astand of alder at the headof a spring. Liesl, my youngpudelpointer, locked up assoon as she approached thetree line. Isaac spotted thebird and walked it up andpointed his Remington 870.When the gun spoke, thedog dashed in and Isaac hadhis first grouse. It was thefirst grouse for the pudelpointer as well.
I had my chance to shoota rufed grouse over her inthe morning. There wereat least three in the coveyand the biggest one blewout of a patch ofberries.The bird crashed to a loadof No. 7-V2s at 35 yards.Liesl and I waded in to thehead-high bushes and thistime I found the bird beforeshe did.
There were two otherbirds with this one. Weheard them beat their wayup into trees. When I wasready to walk away, Isaacsaid he'd hang back. He figured two in the bush mightbe worth one in the hand.
When James and I were30 yards down the trail weheard the bird fly and heardthe sound of the shotgun asIsaac made a diKcult shotthrough the trees.
Stiff and sore fiomwalking all day, we workedour way back to the cabinwhere I cooked seven birdsover a propane stove. Therest of the grouse we atethe way nature providedthem, a taste Imna's peopleknew well, up in those quietmountains in the northeastcorner of Oregon.

NORTHEAST OREGON HUNTING
• A hunting trip inthe Blue Mountainshelps veteran findsense of normalcy

Kyle James, who makeshis home in Oregon City, is asoft-spoken 30-year-old whoused to sit in the turret onan armored Humvee withhis finger light on the 240Bravo trigger.
We hunted with him innortheast Oregon's BlueMountains in late August.
There were six of us:James, Phillippe Freeman,Jake Carse, landowner BradAndrews, Sam Pyke and me.We met in Unity at the WaterHole Tavern and planned thehunt over dinner. W e foundout James had grown up inBaker County, and Andrewsknew his family.
Andrews and Freemanhad arranged a damage control tag for elk on Andrews'property in this corner of theBlue Mountains.
James would use Freeman's rifle, a long-barreled7mm Remington UltraMagnum, topped with aLeupold scope and equippedwith a bipod.
"I knew I was ready togo hunting again when Iwanted to go shooting again."That happened last spring,James said.
The IED that blew hisHumvee into the air was hidden in a manhole and detonated with a walkie-talkiewhen the rear axle was over

We cut the tracks of a bigherd late in the afternoonand found a perch in a haybarn that commanded a viewof the bottoms of three canyons. There were two fires inthe immediate vicinity, andwe could hear the helicoptersw orking the mop-up of theEldorado and Cornet/WindyRidge fires in the distance.
With the sun in the west,the mountain valleys andthe tops of the yellowed grasswere lit with an orange glow.We sat with our binocularsto our eyes and peered intothickets with the longer glass.

ridge. Right behind it, I sawchocolate-colored ears abovethe tops of the sage, silhouetted against a lemon-yellow sky.
"Elk," I whispered, and thatset off a scramble inside thehay barn as Freeman andJames moved into position.
Elk streamed off the top ofthe hill, in ones and twos andknots of six and seven. Wecould see more coming downthe hill.
Kneeling, using a sheet ofcorrugated steel for a rest,James was on the trigger,Freeman beside him.
There were two spike bullson the slope before us, andtwo branch-antlered bullswere in the group knotted atthe top of the hill. Elk milledon the high slope while theelk began to feed in front ofus. All told, we could havecounted close to 120 elk inthe herd.
"Pick out a lone cow,"Freeman whispered. A shotcrashed in the stillness, anda few elk broke downhill forthe open alfalfa fields, whilethe rest of the herd bunchedon top of the ridge. Westarted up the hill to claimJames' prize.
At the end of it, under asliver of moon in a smokysky, James flashed a widegrin. He was ready to startto work on his first elk, toput the nutritious, wholesome meat aside for hisyoung family.
"I'm a hunter again. It feelsgood," he said.
Healing takes time. Forthis young Army veteran,the road back to the BlueMountains had been longand hard. Welcome home,Kyle James.

OK, so you've figured
Now how do we do it? You'llwant to take some goodbinoculars and a spottingscope. I used to recommend8x binocs, but years ago Idecided that I was missingtoo much game so I went to10x. For my antelope hunt,I just got a pair of LeupoldMojave Pro Guide HD10x42s and then I have anold 15-30x Gold Ring spotting scope.Get up on a ridge or high
spot and start glassing. Likeall hunting, you'll see a lotmore game at daylight anddark. I glass in zones. Here'swhat I mean by that. I systematically glass. I'll zoomacross the mountainside,drop down 50 yards and go
back, repeating this processall the way down themountain. Animals movein and out of cover so don'tjust glass a hillside once andgive up. If I see something,I don't press in too close because I don't want to spookthem out of my area. I wanteverything to stay calm.
If you're scouting forbears, find some drawswith berries. You'll know ifthey're in that particularpatch because they leave alot of signs. They eat highfiber diets.

Of course, this year Iwas a little worried dueto the massive fires in myantelope unit, but I finallyfound one super nice buckand a respectable one. Butmy wife and I were goingout on our first scouting tripand my four-wheeler flippedend over end on the asphalt.I'll be a little gimpy for amonth, so I can't really hikeand scout like normal. I'mstill getting out, I just haveto glass more from the trails.
Well, hopefully you get achance to scout and get a bigone lined up for opening day.

office, said the fire's Oregon portion iabout half theburned acreage is in Washingtonl is confined to theWenaha unit.
That's a smaller unit thanothers in Wallowa CountySled Springs, Chesnimnus andMinam, for instance — withcorrespondingly fewer tags.
The fire burned hottestin places, including theWenaha- Tucannon Wilderness, that don't have largedeer populations, and don'tattract many buck hunters,Matthews said.
"I don't anticipate too muchof a change for hunters" as aresult of the fire, he said.
As with the Eagle Complex, he said it's possible thatroad or area closures will putsome parts of the Wenahaunit off-limits to hunters.
"But I'm hoping that byOctober there won't be anyclosures in effect," Matthewssald.
The fire is more likely toinfluence the movementsof whitetail deer than muledeer, he said.
Whitetail deer are commonin the Wenaha unit and makeup a significant percentageof the bucks harvested thereeach fall.
Because they're moreskittish than mule deer,whitetails prefer habitatthat includes thick tree coverwhere they can hide, Matthews said.
Whitetails are likely toavoid places where the fireconsumed that cover — asin parts of the Cornet/WindyRidge Fire.Mule deer, though, adapt
m ore readily to the effects ofa fire, Matthews said.
"It's amazing how theanimals not only can escapethe fire, but they're right backthere in the burned area," hesaid.'You wonder what theyfind to eat, but they knowwhere they want to be."

The Phillips Creek Fire,which burned roughly 2,600acres northwest of Elgin,was the biggest blaze in thecounty this summer.
The main impact in thatarea could be for hunterswhose prey moved because ofthe fire.

And though it likely won'thappen in time for rifledeer season, which starts intwo weeks, any additionalmoisture at the fire locationcould provide a benefit forthe upcoming elk season orin the long run.

Grouse season is already under way in northeast Oregon, while hunting season forpheasant, chukar and California quail, among others, begins Oct. 10.
Upland bird hunters couldbenefit from recent drought• The recent lackof rain in northeastOregon has helpedbird numbers riseBy Josh Benham
The lack of rain over thelast half of the year was aburden to just about everybodyin northeast Oregon.But for upland game birdsiand, therefore, those hunting for them), it was actuallya big positive.
The hunting season forthe majority of upland gamebirds begins next month.Blue and ruffed grouseseasons, plus mourning dove,began Sept. 1, but for huntersof pheasant, chukar, hungarian partridge and Californiaquail, the season begins Oct.10 in Eastern Oregon.
"Most of the seasons openup on the same day," said ¹gel Seidel, the acting managerfor Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area.'They actually start to nest inthe spring, but grouse broodsarea earlier in the spring, andso they become large enoughto harvest earlier."
From his vantage point,Seidel said he's witnessingsome promising early signsfor the hunting season.
"In general around thewildlife area, we're seeinga really good number ofpheasant, duck and quailbroods," he said.'That shouldextrapolate to the otherpopulated areas of UnionCounty, too."
There's always a numberof factors that contributeto hunting numbers goingup or down. But Seidel saidone of the main reasons issurprisingly the low rainfall,with a caveat.
"It was the lack ofrain butduring specific times of theyear," Seidel said.
He believes it was certaintime periods leading up tothe heart of summertimethat were the most effectivein producing good numbers.
"In most cases, it's thattime from later in April intoearly May when the eggs willactually hatch," Seidel said."So it's that mid to late Mayrange into early June, whereif we get substantial rain, oreven hail, it's bad for birds.A little shower isn't bad, butthe those big downpoursdrown out the little chicks.And even in the nesting period, the nests can get flooded,or hail will actually crack theegg open, for instance."
The lack of precipitationdidn't have a big impact onthe habitat, specifically for

Union County, as the fire season didn't hit this area as badas neighboring counties. Theamount of vegetation wasstill sustainable for the birdpopulations, which could stillfeast on generous amounts ofinsects and invertebrates.
"It's a fine line on the lackof rain, but there was stillplenty to forage," Seidel said.
The duck numbers, however, are one of the few birdsthat appear to have beenaffected by the lack of water,especially in wildlife areas,Seidel said. There have beena number of ducks hit by carson Highway 30, for example,as the duck broods movearound and cross from laketo lake, as the lake optionsfor the bird dwindled.
But for the most part, thetypical areas should be ripe

for hunting. Ladd Marsh isone of those areas, but onlycertain parts are open tohunting.
"A lot of the farmlands inthe i Grande Ronde Valley)w ill have some great opportunities to hunt pheasants.There's always a lot of quailin the valley, and up into thesagebrush habitat, we're seeing good numbers of birds,"Seidel said.
So he expects a fine uplandgame bird season.
"I think it'll be the same orbetter than any of the pastfew years," Seidel said."Justdriving around here I seea lot ofbroods that shouldallow people to get out andharvest something. Or atleast they11 have the chanceto have some interactionswith the birds."

over the years about lastcasts. How annoying theywere to friends and familywho didn't understand that"last cast" really meant"lastfish" and/or encounteringthe upper thresholds of faithand possibility as they weretested by weather, darknessand human tolerance.
No, I wasn't ready to goyet. Not one single part ofme wanted to leave withouta steelhead. And I firmlybelieved I would catch one,somehow, if I just tried hardenough and combed througheverything I knew.
Sensing the need to appeara man of my word, I reeledup and walked to the truck.
"Ben," I said,"do you care if Ijust fish one more place? Backup river, on our way out?a
And the thing about fishing buddies, given such aclear choice of compromise,more often than not theytake it.
"Sure," Ben said."But I'mdone for the day."
"That's OK," I replied.With five minutes of good
dusk light left, I hoppedout of the truck and Benfollowed. There was a spot,earlier in the day that wehad fished, that just seemedsteelheady: the river hit abend into a heavily bouldered riffle, at the very top ofwhich, as the river unwoundfrom the bend and began toslow, ever so slightly, therewas a boulder, and in front ofthe boulder, a small microseam of current I could castinto for a five-foot drift.
Five minutes later, no fish.It was dark enough I had totake my polarized sunglassesoff. Then I decided it didn'tmake a difference and putthem back on.

Cameron Scott, right, shown in a photo with a client, hooked his first steelhead at dusk after bugging a fishing friendto stay out a little longer.
didn't actually becomea steelhead fisherman
until I finally arrived inWallowa County one winterin early January to teachcreative writing to WallowaCounty's youth as a writerin-residence for Fishtrap, anonprofit located in Enterprise. I was, at the time, insearch of a different life path.Holding down meaninglessw inter jobs and breaking iceout of the guides of my fly rodas I slowly contemplated theevening's meal of Top Ramenand froze to death whileimmersed in the solitude ofRocky Mountain rivers hadits charms. But too often, toofew. And so, as Ben Hayesand I descended one of themany golden-hued basaltstepped canyons of WallowaCounty, it felt like I wascoming home. The farther wedescended, the more buoyant I felt. I was going fishing,only this time for steelhead.
What turned out to be arather mild late January daywith the occasional smolt orwhitefish on the line quicklyturned late. I sensed, as thehours passed, that I couldn'tfly fish for steelhead as Ialways had for trout. Sure, Idredged every possible troutlie I could find under a slowmovingindicator, but it wasn'tproducing any steelhead.Mulling over multiple steelhead sayings I'd heard overthe years like walking-pacedwater, just this side of swiftmoving currents and mightnot even be in the river, I triedto focus and kept pushingmyself to get good drifts.

asked."In a second," I replied.The most difficult part
about fishing with someonesusceptible to chance is ourZen-like-Las-Vegas-going-towin-the-next-hand-intensitythat turns us into absoluteliars. I'd learned all I could
"Let's go," Ben said."I know. Just give me a few
more casts," I requested."It's too dark," Ben said."OK, five more casts," I
replied.The mark of a good fishing
buddy, someone I will fish withover and over again, is either:
• they are areally nice
• they are just as bad withall this last cast business as Iam and occasionally wanderinto camp or back to the vehicle even later than I do anddon't mind hiking out of riverdrainages under the power ofheadlamps.
Ben, being the smart, intelligent, unaffected type, is theprior. And as I cast, and cast,and cast, and it grew darkerand darker and darker, I bethe was counting the ways hewould not ever go fishing withme again. Back in the truck,I was going to have to pull offa whole new level of regretfullness and admittance tohaving a fishing"problem,"which always left me uprooted, moving around, restless,and for the love of somethingother than fish. How great itwas to have fiiends that werenot only as nice as Ben, butfly-fished, too.
"Alright, seriously, this ismy final cast," I promised.
And then, bam. The silhouette of indicator suddenlywent down, I lifted my rodtip, and lo and behold therewas a big, angry, steelheadon the other end of the line,tail slapping the water beforescreaming off down river.It does no good to go into
what it would have meantto lose this first steelhead ona fly rod, things being whatthey were, year accumulating upon year, trout upontrout, in a thick soupy blur.It would have given Ben anopportunity, not that a goodguy like him would havetaken advantage, to take the

low road as often goes withfishing tensions, saying howsorry he was that I lost it,when really he was inwardlyhappy I had met my indulgence with such disheartening and devastating failure.
"Better luck next time.""Bummer, man."''When a cookie crumbles,
it really crumbles. I'll go getyou a beer from the cooler."
But, for as much as Ishould have lost that fishamong the jumbled tailout ofboulders as it rippedin and out, attempting totie my line up and underone, I kept the rod tip high,splashed about in the riverlike amad man as Benranback to the truck for the net,and with Ben's help, landedthe steelhead.
It turned out to be a smallhatchery female, 22 inches,flamed-out scarlet red onthe gill plate and bright redtoward the tail with a bit oforange toward the belly. Itwas breathtakingly gorgeous.Ben kept mumbling something about how lucky I was.And I was. All grins.
As I lifted both the steelhead and myself fiom thewater, punched Ben on theshoulder and walked backthrough the descendingwinter gloom to the truck, Ihad finally caught the fish inlife that contained a handfulof shared paradoxes: alwaysmoving, river-centric anddriven hard by the cycles oflife. Sure, there were other fishto catch. Bigger fish. Smallerfish. Fish with teeth and fishwithout. But this fish, thisfish called a steelhead, thiswas the one, here down in thebasalt-stepped canyon, thatfelt closest to home.

Steelhead fishing innortheast Oregon couldbring in some positiveresults this fall, even ifOregon Department ofFishand Wildlife Fish BiologistKyle Bratcher is somewhatskeptical of the initialnumbers.
cWe're looking at a reallystrong run," Bratcher said."Right now the guess issomewhere around 20,000fish on the Grande Rondeand the Imhana iriversl.a
That number is the estimate based on the countsreceived on fish that havecleared Bonneville Dam.
But other numbers alongthe Columbia River haveBratcher waiting to seewhat becomes of the initialguesses.
"Overall for the wholeColumbia River Basin, thenumbers are down," he said,explaining his skepticism.But even if the number
that actually reaches thearea is lower than 20,000,its seems likely that steelhead anglers are primed tohave a good season aheadof them.
Bratcher noted that"14,000 is a solid numbercrossing Bonneville," andthat anything higher improves the experience.
cWe got 19,000 overBonneville iin 2014l andlast year was a phenomenalsteelhead year," he said.'Youstart getting up into 1920,000 range, you're gettinginto really good fishing."
Those high return ratesshould result in some better catching rates as well.Bratcher said he likes tosee rates below an averageof one fish every 10 hours,and said fishermen shouldsee numbers well belowthat mark.
''When we get these really
good runs, we see our catchrates dip down to three tofour hours a fish, which is

really good fishing," he said.Steelhead anglers will also
benefit fiom an extendedseason, as a Sept. 4decisionby the Oregon Fish andWildlife Commission addedtwo weeks to the end of theseason. Anglers will now beable to fish untilApril 30.The season started Sept. 1.
The decision is one thatBratcher pushed for, sayingthat steelhead fishing isoftentimes good even latein the season and that theEnterprise office hasn't metits harvest objectives inrecent years.
cWe've had reports ofpeople going out the lastdays of the season andhaving really good days,"Bratcher said.
Few steelhead anglershave been out thus far in2015, which Bratcher saidis normal.
"October is generallywhen the fish start showingup," he said."October is oneof the better months. The flyfishermen really pick it up."
The bag limit for steelheadfishermen is three per day.
Bratcher noted thatfishing in general has beengood this year, in spite of thewarmer river and pond temperatures and the wildfiresthat kept anglers away.
"A lot of the fishinghas actually been prettydecent," Bratcher said."TheWallowa River has beenproducing some pretty goodtrout. Bass fishing was gooddown on the Grande Rondebefore the fire came in.Over at Brownlee, bass fishing was really good. Catchrates at Wallowa Lake werereally good."
The only fishing that wasreally affected by the highwater temperatures wassalmon.
'That's a spot where thewarm water did hurt us,"Bratcher said."It just didn'tset up for a very good season. Overall it was prettymediocre salmon season."

HUNTING NEWS
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2015
The Associated Press
ANCHORAGE,Alaska — A cabletelevision network suspended ahunting show after the program'shost and nine others involved in theproduction were charged in a federalpoachinginvestigation at a nationalpreserve in remote northwestAlaska.
The Sportsman Channel on Tuesday immediately suspended"TheSyndicate" from airing on the network and launched its own internalinvestigation, said Jim Liberatore,CEO and president of OutdoorSportsman Group Networks.
aWe take this situation veryseriously and have acted swiftlyto suspend the show, its producersand talent," Liberatore said in astatement."If true, what has beenalleged is clearly unacceptable,unethical and against everythingour networks stand for."
Prosecutors on Monday said morethan two dozen grizzly bears, moose,caribou and Dall sheep were illegally killed in the Noatak NationalPreserve, which is north of the ArcticCircle and near Alaska's northwestern coast. The illegal kills ended upon the show, authorities alleged.
There were at least four hunts
Several grizzly bears are among the more than two dozen animals that have been allegedly poached inAlaska. The television show "The Syndicate" has been suspended in the wake of the killings.
conducted in Alaska for the showover the last five years. AssistantU.S. Attorney Steven Skrocki, thelead prosecutor, said at a news conference Monday that all the Alaska
hunts for the show were conductedillegally but were edited to appearthat they were legal.
The show's host, Clark W. Dixon,41, of Hazlehurst, Mississippi, was

Dixon didn't return a message leftby The Associated Press on Monday,and the phone at his home in Mississippi rang unanswered Tuesday.
Nine other people, who are fromAlaska, Tennessee, Mississippi,Louisiana and Nevada, and twoproduction companies face relatedmisdemeanors or tickets.
"The Syndicate" is independentlyproduced and purchases air timeon the Sportsman Channel, Liberatore said.
One of the production companiescited for using footage shot in thepreserve without a permit calledthe network's decision to suspendthe show "unfortunate." However,the statement from SyndicateHunting of Reno, Nevada, adds:''While disheartened, we respecttheir decision to do so."It also says once it became aware
of the allegations, it severed tieswith Dixon and another personcharged. It was unclear when thecompany found out about the investigation and when ties were cut.

Co ssioners go sightseeing for elk -'ii'XZKICSZ MBy Katherine LacazeThe Daily Astoaan
More than a dozen OregonFish and Wildlife commissioners and staff peeredthrough telescopes on thebanks of the Neacoxie RiverSept. 3. They were seekingelk — and they found themduring their daylong tourof fish and wildlife facilitiesalong the North Coast.
The Reserve at Gearhart was their first stop, aprecursor to the commission's monthly meeting thefollowing day at the BestWestern Ocean View Resortin Seaside. The tour providedcommissioners a groundlevel look at Clatsop Countywildlife and habitat.
At The Reserve in Gearhart, commissioners witnessed elk that had separated from the main herd ofabout 70. Here, the elk are"in their natural element,which is kind of low-densitydevelopment and golf courses," said Herman Biederbeck,a wildlife biologist for theOregon Department of Fishand Wildlife.
The reserve is surroundedby two golf courses, GearhartGolf Links and HighlandsGolf Club. Thirty acres ofNorth Coast Land Conservancy land to the east of thereserve are part of the conservancy's Neacoxie WildlifeCorridor project, designed inthe 1990s to create a habitatfor wildlife along the Neacoxie River.
As the Clatsop Plains getincreasingly developed, elkand humans inevitably collide, creating risks for both.
Wildlife photographer NealMaine shared photos of whathappens when elk and peopleshare the landscape. In one, ayoung woman scurries awayfrom an elk she angered byapproaching the animal andits calf for an"elk selfie."
Elaborate landscaping candraw elk into yards wherethey are unwanted, Mainesaid, and the animals areknown to create traffic hazards crossing U.S. Highway101 and other roads.Residents have differ
ing opinions about the elkand how to deal with them,Biederbeck said. Some preferelk roam unhindered; others,particularly farmers andcommercial interests, prefera more managed approach.
Because of strong contrasting opinions, the departmenttends "to deal with elk issueson an individual, case-bycase basis," Biederbeck said.'The elk have their pros andcons out here, for sure."
Inland, at the Jewell
Meadows Wildlife Area inthe Oregon Coast Rangemountains, the departmentmanages a different elkpopulation.
The 1,114-acre area servesto protect and enhance wildlife habitat, reduce wildlifedamage to surroundingproperties and provide thepublic with an opportunity toobserve wildlife in a naturalsetting. Jewell MeadowsWildlife Area ManagerBryan Swearingen helpsthe department managethe herd's winter habitatand provide supplementalfeeding for Roosevelt elk andblack-tailed deer.
The department's management plan at the wildlifearea is designed to keep theelk population artificiallylow, about 225 out of a landcapacity of about 400, Swearingen said.
A portion of the wildlifearea, near Fishhawk Creek,is designated for elk refuge,although some tracts are open

to the public for hunting.The department provides
supplemental feed in winter tomitigate the animals'negative impact on the land usesof adjacent properties, ownedby Weyerhaeuser Co., StimsonLumber Co. and the OregonDepartment of Forestry.
To determine populationmodels, the departmentcurrently uses helicopters, acostly and potentially riskymethod. The state plans topartner with Oregon StateUniversity to conduct an elkcensus using unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, whichcould register data in the skyover the Youngs River basin,Biederbeck said.
The wildlife area will provide an outdoor laboratoryto calibrate and test aerialequipment before expandingthe program to nearby control sites, he added. Successdepends on capturing imagery with a resolution highenough to detect and classifythe individual elk.
