It offers a succession of - grandeur and scenic beauty unexcelled by any railroad trip - in America. - - -_EXPLANATION OF VIEWS ILLUSTRATED_ - - -MOUNT SHASTA FROM RESERVOIR LAKE (COVER) - -This is one of the most famous views of this imperial mountain peak. - - -THE FERRY BUILDING - -From the Ferry Building, at the foot of Market Street, the ferry boats -of the Southern Pacific take the traveler across San Francisco Bay -to Oakland Pier. The Ferry Building, erected in 1896 at a cost of -$1,000,000, is the water gate of San Francisco, where rail and tide -meet. There is scarcely a minute in the day when there is not a ferry -either arriving at or departing from some one of the ferry slips. - - -VIEW OF SAN FRANCISCO, SHOWING THE HARBOR, OAKLAND, AND MOUNT DIABLO IN -THE DISTANCE - -San Francisco, the starting point of this journey, is the largest and -best known of the cities on the Pacific Coast. This bird’s eye view of -lower San Francisco, the Ferry Building and San Francisco Bay, shows -the splendid body of water facing the city. This Bay is seventy miles -long and from three to ten miles wide, and has an area of four hundred -and fifty square miles. Vessels of all descriptions, and from all -parts of the globe, populate San Francisco harbor, which is the pride -and marvel of all navigators. Yerba Buena Island is seen on the left, -++the trans-bay cities of Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda, and ferryboat -landings in the middle distance, while in the distance is seen Mount -Diablo. - - -OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA - -Oakland, the third largest city in California is but eighteen minutes -from San Francisco via the Southern Pacific’s fine transbay steamers. - -With its fine harbor facilities, Oakland is rapidly growing as a -commercial center, carrying on an extensive coastwise and foreign -trade. Its position on the east side of the bay, makes it a great -railroad terminal for all lines from the north, south and east. - -As a community of homes, Oakland has a well deserved fame, for its -setting is picturesque and the climate nears perfection. - -Oakland has many attractive parks and public playgrounds. Lake Merritt, -near the Civic Center is a natural water-park, and state game reserve, -where thousands of wild ducks make their winter home, an unusual sight, -indeed. Boating may be enjoyed every day in the year. - -Oakland’s City Hall, with its massive tower, is the tallest building in -California, its height being 377 feet. - - -FERRY BOAT “CONTRA COSTA” - -This ferry carries Southern Pacific trains and passengers between -Port Costa and Benicia, crossing the Carquinez Straits. The distance -is about a mile and requires about twenty minutes. The ferry was -constructed as a sister ship to the ferry “Solano” and is the largest -ferry in the world. It is 433 feet long, cost $450,000, and has a -capacity of 36 cars and two engines. - - -LASSEN PEAK, LASSEN VOLCANIC NATIONAL PARK - -Lassen Peak, California, is the latest scene of volcanic activity on -the Pacific Coast, adding another point of interest along “The Road of -a Thousand Wonders.” Lassen Peak with its elevation of 10,577 feet, can -be seen from the car windows of the “Shasta Route” trains, and can be -visited from Red Bluff or Redding by automobile. - - -SACRAMENTO RIVER AND MT. SHASTA FROM CASTELLA - -This is one of the finest views in the canyon, with the mighty form of -Mt. Shasta in the background. The great white cap extends 14,444 feet -above the sea. The foothill counties tributary to this valley are rich -in gold and other minerals, while the rich soil of the entire valley -is adapted to raising of a most diverse variety of crops. The upper -canyon of the Sacramento River constantly presents to the traveler an -ever-changing scene of astounding splendor. - - -CASTLE CRAGS IN SACRAMENTO CANYON - -Castle Crags, in the Sacramento Canyon, are great granite rocks, rising -close beside the track, to a height of 4,000 feet. Their vertical -strata splintered into a hundred parapets, makes this a scene never to -be forgotten. Beyond the Crags is Castle Lake at an elevation of 7,245 -feet, and from this point appears the rounded summit of Mt. Shasta, -silver against the turquoise sky; a watch tower of the world, gazing -ever toward the eternal. - - -MOSSBRAE FALLS AT SHASTA SPRINGS - -Here one of the enormous streams which have their origin in the melting -snows of Mt. Shasta, divides itself into a myriad of little waterways -before reaching the top of a wooded semi-circular cliff, from which -point it tumbles into the Sacramento River, a hundred feet below, -forming Mossbrae Falls, as they appear like a thousand springs born -under the rocky ground. - - -SHASTA SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA - -Shasta Springs, near the base of Mount Shasta, is one of the best-known -all-the-year-around resorts in the world. Here the train stops long -enough for a drink of the famous sparkling Shasta water, real soda -water. This resort is noted for its scenic beauty and its health-giving -water. - - -CANTARA LOOP, 18TH CROSSING, SACRAMENTO RIVER, CALIFORNIA - -The train spends five hours crossing and recrossing the Sacramento -River. This loop was devised to get out of the canyon and up on the -plateau where stands Mt. Shasta, with its snowy summit, as seen from -the car windows; nothing could be a more glorious tribute to the -marvelous skill of the modern railroad engineer, than the obstacles met -with and overcome in building a railroad through this rugged country. - - -SISSON, AT THE BASE OF MOUNT SHASTA - -At this point the traveler finds himself at the base of the mountain, -and if he desires, can arrange a genuine Alpine mountain climbing trip. -The town stands at the base of the mountain and a road runs to the edge -of the timber line, which has made possible an ascent of the mountain -in a single day. The wonderful view from the summit, 14,444 feet above -the sea, is bounded only by the curvature of the world’s disc, and -there is not a finer view to be had anywhere. - - -PANORAMA OF MT. SHASTA AND BLACK BUTTE - -There are numerous volcanic cones scattered throughout this part of -California. One of the best-known is Black Butte, also called Muirs -Peak. Its cone is almost perpendicular to a height of almost 6,000 -feet, close to the base of Mt. Shasta--black, bare and desolate, an -extinct volcano, with half a dozen craters in plain view. Mt. Shasta -is an extinct volcano, one of the highest peaks on the North American -Continent. Its snows and glaciers feed hundreds of streams which thread -the wild region in every direction. These wild regions are a paradise -for the sportsman and lover of nature. Grizzly, black and cinnamon bear -abound, elk, deer and mountain sheep are plenty, as well as a great -variety of smaller game. The streams are alive with trout. - - -MOUNT SHASTA FROM EDGEWOOD - -Here is one of the favorite view points of this great snow-capped -mountain and where the majestic grandeur of the mountain is most -apparent. Edgewood, as the name suggests, is literally the edge of the -forest. From this point to the summit of the Siskiyous there is very -little timber. - - -MT. McLOUGHLIN FROM UPPER KLAMATH LAKE - -The Klamath Country has no superior as a pleasure realm for the -sportsman and camper, and of unusual interest to tourists. Much of this -region is still a wilderness, full of the charm of mountain and forest. -Its marches are breeding grounds for wild fowl; its clear streams and -broad lakes are full of lusty, hard-fighting trout, and in its forests -roam deer, bear and cougars. Mount McLoughlin, the highest peak in -southern Oregon, is 9,760 feet above sea level. - - -WIZARD ISLAND, CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK - -Crater Lake lies in the heart of the Cascade Range, in southern Oregon, -its surface 6,177 feet above sea level. As its name suggests, it is the -crater of an extinct volcano. Crater Lake has been sounded to a depth -of 1,996 feet and declared by scientists to be the deepest inland body -of water in the world. Rising almost sheer from the water’s edge, the -rim of the lava cliffs attain at places a height of 2,000 feet. From -Crater Lake Lodge, on the rim of the lake, the opposite shore is six -miles away. Wizard Island is a perfectly preserved cinder cone rising -nearly 1,000 feet above the lake. You may climb the slaggy timbered -cone of Wizard Island and descend one hundred feet into its crater -which is five hundred feet across. - - -LOOP TUNNELS 14 AND 15 IN SISKIYOU MOUNTAINS - -This picture represents one of the difficulties of railroads through -this rugged mountain range and shows elevation is overcome by the -use of tunnels. A tunnel is cut through the rocks; a circuit is made -leading back to the same point at a higher elevation and another tunnel -is cut directly over the first one. The traveler will find this a most -interesting view as the train winds its way through these mountains. - - -GOLD RAY DAM, SHOWING TABLE MOUNTAIN AND ROGUE RIVER - -Table Rock is familiar in Indian history as the place where Captain -Jack of the Modoc Indians made his last stand; was captured and hung -at Old Fort Klamath, ending the historical Modoc war. Snow-capped Mt. -Pitt, rising to an altitude of 9,760 feet, is visible from this point. - - -HELL GATE, ROGUE RIVER - -This picture shows the character of the upper stretches of this -splendid trout stream. Anglers cross the continent for the joys of -fishing this stream. The line of the Shasta Route from Medford to -Crater Lake follows this canyon and affords many beautiful views. - - -COW CREEK CANYON - -Despite its unromantic title, this canyon has few rivals in the -attractiveness of its scenery. For a long way, the tracks run parallel -to the stream, which races in rapid rivalry with the train. Its rugged -walls on every hand form grotesque outlines, suggesting weird figures -to the imagination of a nature-loving mind. - - -THE WILLIAMETTE RIVER, OREGON - -The Southern Pacific “Shasta Route” follows for 150 miles, the -beautiful Williamette River, and from the car windows, may be glimpsed -views of its wooded banks, its gleaming reaches and winding course that -will delight the beholder. The Williamette Valley through which it -flows is the principal valley of Western Oregon. - - -MOUNT HOOD FROM LOST LAKE - -This mountain is often spoken of as the “Pride of Oregon.” Its -uppermost peak reaches an altitude of 11,225 feet and is plainly -visible from many points on this part of “The Road of a Thousand -Wonders.” While this grand mountain is easy to climb, the ascent is -steep and the alpenstock and rope are used to aid one in his upward -journey. On the top one finds a region of perpetual snow, but the view -is indescribably grand. The trip to the summit is one of the most -popular trips out of Portland. - - -PORTLAND, OREGON. MOUNT HOOD IN DISTANCE - -Portland, often termed the “Rose City,” has many natural advantages -and points of interest to the traveler. This popular name is derived -from the city’s beautiful parks and homes, where roses are in abundance -everywhere. A trip up the Columbia River from Portland will leave an -impression on the traveler never to be forgotten. Mountain climbing and -ocean bathing are popular sports that help to make Portland a favorite -stopping point. - - -[Illustration: (map) - - SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES - SUNSET, OGDEN AND SHASTA ROUTES - AND CONNECTIONS -] - -[Illustration: FRONT VIEW OF FERRY BUILDING, SAN FRANCISCO, 125,000 -PERSONS PASS THROUGH ITS PORTALS DAILY.] - -[Illustration: SAN FRANCISCO AND BAY, OAKLAND, BERKELEY AND ALAMEDA IN -DISTANCE] - -[Illustration: VISTA OF BEAUTIFUL LAKE MERRITT, OAKLAND] - -[Illustration: FERRY BOAT “CONTRA COSTA”] - -[Illustration: LASSEN PEAK--LASSEN VOLCANIC NATIONAL PARK] - -[Illustration: SACRAMENTO RIVER AND MT.

Thus, we do not -necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper -edition. - -Most people start at our website which has the main PG search -facility: www.gutenberg.org - -This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, -including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary -Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to -subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. |
