Was this Oregon house built a DECADE before Lewis and Clark first arrived? Experts believe log cabin
Was this Oregon house built a DECADE before Lewis and Clark first arrived? Experts believe log cabin could have been home for Russian farmers who moved from Alaska

The U.S. put the first man on the moon, but in a strange twist of history it appears the Russians may have beat America in settling Oregon.
Experts proposed this new theory in a recently released 200-page report on the Molalla Log Cabin, a structure they believe could have been built as early as 1795 - ten years before Lewis and Clark reached the Pacific Ocean.
Historic building repairer Gregg Olson and architectural historian Pam Hayden have been analyzing the log cabin for seven years and say it is unlike anything else found in Oregon.
The cabin's intricate construction is not consistent with pioneer building methods, suggesting it was created by foreigners, and more specifically Russians.
The way the logs are tightly interwoven, secured without nails and leaving no gaps to fill, is similar to Russian log cabins of the same time period, when Catherine the Great was sending envoys to Alaska to boost the fur trade.
Olson and Hayden hypothesize that the 18-foot-wide cabin could have been a home for a small group of 10 to 50 Russian settlers sent to Oregon's Willamette Valley as farmers to feed the fur trappers on Alaska's Kodiak Island.
Oregon
This state has dramatic landscapes including the deepest lake in the U.S., is the only state with an official nut, and is NOT the rainiest, wettest place in America. Learn more from this video in which Nathan Cooper, Assistant Public Affairs Officer at the U.S. Mission to International Organizations in Vienna, introduces his home state: Oregon. #50states #OR
Transcript:
Hello! My name is Nathan Cooper, I work at the U.S. Mission to International Organizations in Vienna, and I come from the beautiful state of Oregon. It's a state with majestic natural resources and a fiercely independent character.
Before I talk a bit more extensively about the state's history and culture, let me quickly dispel three common misconceptions about my home state: First, many people often guess Oregon is somewhere in the middle of the country. Actually, Oregon is on the West Coast of the United States, just above California.
Second, although you may have heard it called Or-ee-GONE, locals pronounce it ORE-gun.
And last, contrary to what weather maps often depict, Oregon is not the wettest, rainiest place in America (that's actually in Hawaii).
Oregon is perhaps most famous for its dramatic and diverse landscape. Its rugged coastline contains sprawling beaches and a fascinating array of marine life, including noisy sea lions and vibrant tide pools.
The Western half of the state is dominated by the volcanic Cascade mountain range. There you'll find famous peaks like Mt. Hood, dense evergreen forests and rushing rivers. The western Willamette Valley is also home to the state's two largescities, Portland and Eugene, as well as a world-class winemaking region. And a vashigh-elevation desert covers the eastern half of the state.
Southern Oregon's Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the US. It was formed by a collapsed volcano in the Cascades. These kinds of natural resources have attracted explorers and adventurers to Oregon since its earliest days.
Archeologists have found evidence of human settlements in what is now know as Oregon dating back at least 15,000 years. Large numbers of Native American groups, including the Umpqua, Molalla, Klamath, and Chinook called area home in the 1500s when Spanish explorers first encountered the Oregon coast in 1543.
Centuries later, President Thomas Jefferson commissioned explorers Lewis and Clark to cross the continent in search of a commercial route for trade with Asia. In 1806 they reached what is now known as Oregon. Lewis and Clark's successful continental crossing lead to Oregon joining the Union in 1859. They're still considered Oregon's forefathers.
OK, that's probably enough of a history lesson. Now for a bit of trivia: In no particular order, here are a few other things you might find surprising about Oregon: It's the only state with an official nut—the hazelnut, which is also sometimes called a filbert. It's the home of Nike. The global capital of wind surfing is Hood River, Oregon, on the banks of the Columba River. Oregon has more ghost towns than anywhere else in the former Wild West. Oregon also has some strangely-named communities. My favorites include the towns of Weed, Drain, Nimrod, and Boring. Oregon is physically the 7th largest American state, but ranks only 29 in terms of population.
Politically, Oregon is both extremely independent and strongly polarized. Oregonians
pioneered direct legislation by the state's citizens through ballot initiatives and referenda,
a system now used throughout the nation. This democratic device allowed Oregonians
to go against the national grain with policies like banning self-pumping at gas stations
and doing away with sales taxes. Oregon's independent streak comes through clearly in
the state's motto: She flies with her own wings.
Consensus among citizens in Oregon is hard to come by, as recent studies have shown
Oregonians to represent some of the most extremely liberal and conservative voters in
the nation.
Although Oregonians are generally a pretty low-key bunch, more than a few famous
people have come from state, including President Herbert Hoover; the actors Sally
Struthers, Kim Novak, and Ginger Rogers; the track star Steve Prefontaine; and the
writers Ken Kesey and Raymond Carver.
To find out more about the state, including information about its economic base, please
visit Oregon.gov. I hope you've enjoyed this quick introduction to the Beaver State, and
hope you'll have the chance to visit it one day.
Grant's Getaways: Stub Stewart State Park
The calendar says it all: summer's almost here, school will soon be out, so let the camping season begin at the newest Oregon State Park Campground.
The scale of Oregon's newest state park campground, called Stub Stewart State Park, is huge, the sights are spectacular and the convenience of it all makes the parkland hard to resist. You'll find spectacular views, spacious wooded campsites and intriguing trails to explore -- whether on foot, a bike or on horseback.
Dabney State Park becomes refuge with high temperatures
As temperatures skyrocket, some residents took refuge in the cool green waters of the Sandy River in Dabney State Park on Monday.
Police state California
The police decided to simply violate this homeless man's rights I happened to notice while I was eating at Denny's they didn't bother him for long but they shouldn't have bothered him at all.

This new day use park compliments nearby Ona Beach (Ona Beach State Park is located 8 miles south of Newport) and South Beach State Parks. It offers paddling, bird watching, walks in the marshland and hiking in upland meadows. Put in your kayak or canoe at the Ona Beach launch for a two-mile long paddle that meanders up the Beaver Creek valley with views of the surrounding Sitka spruce and alder forested hills.

THE CORNUCOPIA PROJECT | Oregon Documentary | Exploring the Secret History of Northeastern Oregon
Presenting Louis and Keegan Adventure #1: The Cornucopia Project.
In this, our first adventure to be brought to film, Louis Bengtson and Keegan Van Hook explore Northeastern Oregon's Wallowa Mountains, specifically to learn about the ghost town of Cornucopia. We also pay a visit to the town of Halfway, as well as many of Oregon's most beautiful natural locations. Along the way, we learn about the history and secrets of the region, all while having a fantastic experience. Come along!
This movie marks the continuance of the Keegan and Louis Adventures blog which ran for a couple years. We begin again at number 1.
Corrections:
00:51:50 - When introducing Halfway, I say that it was platted in 1807. It was actually 1907. I misspoke.
Grant's Getaways: Trek Into New Territory
The trails less traveled are the ones that I enjoy the most -- especially when there's a chance that the adventure holds on to Oregon history. At the south end of the Willamette Valley, three outdoor adventures combine hiking with unique history and the chance to trek into new territory at William Finley National Wildlife Refuge, EE Wilson Wildlife Area and Peavy Arboretum.
Rigged for Adventure: Molalla River SUP
Taking the Hala Hoss, Hala Atcha, and Hala Fame down the Molalla. As the rainy season begins so does several months of epic river running in the NorthWest.

First PNW Toyota ZZ Club Cruise!
A little video of some clips I had of our first PNW Toyota ZZ Club cruise! We went from Lewis and Clark State Park, to Sandy, then over to Caver, Redland, Beavercreek, Molalla, Mulino, and finally ending in Canby. We had a blast running the roads and being able to meet and talk with other car owners. I had hoped we'd get a turnout of ZZ powered cars other than Celicas but all in good time. This time we had myself, Stewart in the Silver GT-S, Charles in his White GT, and Ike in his Yellow Tsunami. I'm really happy to be fostering a sense of community in my area amongst a rather scattered group of people who all share a similar love for these cars and nobody to share it with. If you're in the PNW of the US (Oregon, Washington, Idaho) and wanna join us feel free to join our FB group. We'll be posting more cruises, track days, parts for sale, scrap yard finds/runs.
I'm hoping to get something planned towards the middle to end of July for our next big meetup.
Remember after you and your friends wrench on your dragons, you need to enjoy them! #savethedragons
