In 1904, more than 50 years after prospectors had started combing the valley for gold, an 18-year-old named Ray Briggs discovered what newspapers at the time called the most wonderful gold discovery ever reported in Oregon history. While hunting along Sucker Creek, he discovered gold lying on the ground. He staked a claim and called it the Wounded Buck Mine, which produced of gold. The mine was a small vein of gold wide, long and deep.
As gold mining in the Illinois Valley became exhausted in the 1860s and 1870s, the residents diversified into ...

Great Cats World Park || Just Mandy! Video #12
In this Episode, i talk about an amazing local attraction where you can get up-close to learn about some big predators (and some small ones too) at the Great Cats World Park, here in Cave Junction, Oregon!
Be sure to check it out for yourself, as they didn't have all of the Cats on display due to the animals needing time and space away from the crowds to get used to their newly remodeled enclosures! We at LEAST missed out on seeing the Lions and Clouded Leopards, so visit the Park sometime to see them for yourself!
