Notes | Alexander R. McLeod's "Journal of a Trapping Expedition along the Coast South of the Columbia in charge of A.R. mcLeod C. T., Summer 1826," was published as a section of Ogden's Snake Country Journal. On June 18, McLeod reached the Yaquina River "called by the Indians Econne" (p.157), which he described as shallow and broad, and camped in the area for several days, hunting and trapping beaver. McLeod also explored Beaver Creek and the Alsea, on down to the Siuslaw River. This volume includes a map showing the trip. |
