CRATER LAKE, OREGON – At approximately 2:30 PM on Sunday, May 29, 2016, two individuals illegally entered the Crater Lake caldera near North Junction. At 7:30 PM, they were reported missing and the effort to locate them began. The park contacted Airlink in Bend, Oregon, who flew to the park and were able to locate the hikers along the shoreline at approximately 9:30 PM. Both were alert and responsive. Due to the darkness and hazardous terrain, rescue operations were suspended until daylight. Park staff mobilized again at 5:00 AM Monday morning. The Jackson County Search and Rescue helicopter arrived at the park at 8:05 AM and began a short haul operation to retrieve the stranded hikers. One hiker sustained major injuries when tumbling the last 250 feet of the over 1000 foot descent. The other hiker was suffering from minor

hypothermia. Airlink medical helicopter returned to transport the most seriously injured hiker. Hiking in the caldera is strictly prohibited year round. The rim of Crater Lake is especially dangerous this time of year due to the large snowfields present in many locations. Snow cornices are a regular occurrence in the park this time of year and can collapse without warning. Snow cornices are formed when snow is blown over sharp terrain like the rim of Crater Lake. The snow forms an overhang with no solid ground beneath it for support. Please use extreme caution and stay away from the edge of the rim at all times.

2016 Fire Season Goes Into Effect in Klamath and Lake Counties

For Immediate Release

Tuesday May 31, 2016 (11:00am) 16_001 CFS

Contact: Dustin Gustaveson (ODF K-L) Randall Baley (ODF K-L) RD Buell (WRPA)

(541) 947-3311 (541) 883-5681 (541) 433-2451

[Klamath Falls]—Fire officials in Klamath and Lake Counties will officially declare fire season beginning Friday, June 3rd, 2016 at 12:01 A.M. on lands protected by the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) Klamath-Lake District. Areas protected by the Walker Range Forest Protective Association, northern Klamath County, have been in a declared fire season since Wednesday, June 1st, 2016 at 12:01 A.M. This affects all private, county, state forestlands, and those Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands under contract and agreement west of the Gerber Reservoir area and HWY 97.

“Despite fairly cool and spring like weather for a good portion of May, these current hot and dry conditions look to continue thru the first weeks of June, so it’s time to prohibit all outdoor burning and put normal industrial restrictions in place.” Stated Randall Baley, Protection Unit Forester, Oregon Department of Forestry.

The “Fire Season in effect” declaration puts into place regulations restricting debris burning and forest operations. Wildland and structural fire protection agencies in Klamath County have agreed to prohibit all outdoor debris burning as do the agencies in Lake County unless a permit is first obtained. Forest operations that require a Permit to Operate Power Driven Machinery now are required to have Fire tools, on-site water supply, and watchman service on privately owned forest land.

In addition to the “Declaration of Fire Season”, ODF and the Klamath Resource Area of the Bureau of Land Management will be placing the Klamath River Canyon area from the Keno Dam to the State Line in a “Regulated Closure”. The Closure stipulates the following: 1) Possession of the following fire-fighting equipment is required while traveling in the forest, except on state and

county roads: an axe, a shovel, and one gallon of water or one 2½ pound or larger fire extinguisher.

“Axe” means a wood cutting tool having a handle of not less than 26 inches in length and a head weight of not less than 2 pounds.

“Shovel,” means a digging tool having a handle not less than 26 inches in length and a blade of not less than 8 inches in width.

2) Smoking in wildland areas is permitted only in enclosed vehicles on roads. Smoking is prohibited while working or traveling in an industrial operation area.

3) Open fires, including campfires, charcoal fires, cooking fires and warming fires, are permitted only at posted and designated sites.

4) Non-Industrial Chainsaw usage is prohibited between 1 P.M. and 8 P.M. 5) Fireworks usage is prohibited within the Closure Area. The Klamath River Canyon has been placed under this Regulated Closure due to its lower elevation, drier fuels, and steep terrain. The Lakeview Interagency Fire Center website: http://scofmp.org/lifc.shtml is available to assist in keeping people informed of current and changing conditions for our area. Walker Range Patrol Association can be contacted at 541-433-2451

These are 4-day (3-night) residential camps at KOSS's camp in Sun Pass State Forest, directly across the Sun Pass Road from Kimball State Park, near Ft. Klamath. Limited scholarships are available for the Artists and Scientists camps through a grant from the Klamath County Cultural Coalition. We are also planning a nature art overnight camp/workshop for adults and teens 16 & up on July 29 & 30. (From 1 pm Fri thru 3 pm Sat.) This will be taught by artist Roxanne Stout of Keno, author of Storytelling with Collage, and will feature nature journaling and collage with natural materials. All meals provided. Also, KOSS is planning to resume building its camp facilities (kitchen/dining hall and restroom) this summer, after receiving a grant from the Oregon Community Foundation for this purpose. Other funds must be raised to complete construction, however. KOSS has a GoFundMe page where donors can contribute to this effort, at gofundme.com/2329jes.

Flooding in Germany and France http://www.theatlantic.com/news/archive/2016/06/europe-flooding/485459/?utm_source=atlfb Nearly a week of rain in parts of Europe has caused towns to evacuate, rivers to rise to near-historic levels, and the Louvre and other attractions to close. The Seine, which flows past the Louvre, had risen Friday 14 feet above its typical level, threatening to overflow its banks. Officials in Paris warned people to stay away from the river, and ordered the city’s commuter train system to shut down. In Germany, at least nine people have died. Many others are missing.

Flooding in Texas http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=88129 Just six weeks after being drenched by record-setting rainfall, much of Texas has been inundated again by a seemingly endless stream of slow-moving thunderstorm systems. Water levels on the Brazos River, near Houston, crested higher than they have in more than a century. The Texas governor declared states of emergency in 31 counties by June 1, 2016.

Monitor lizards vanishing to international trade in pets and skins https://news.mongabay.com/2013/06/monitor-lizards-vanishing-to-international-trade-in-pets-and-skins/ The world’s monitor lizards remind us that the world was once ruled by reptiles: this genus (Varanus) includes the world’s biggest lizards, such as the stunning Komodo dragon and many other island kings. A large number beautifully-colored and patterned, these lizards are known for their intelligence and their apex role in many island food chains. However, a new study finds that the world’s monitors, especially those in Southeast Asia, are vanishing due to the international pet trade and for their skins, which are turned into handbags and straps for watches. Meanwhile the rapid destruction of their rainforest homes is exacerbating the situation.

Illegally traded lizards (left to right): black tree monitor (Varanus beccarii), Reisinger’s tree monitor (Varanus reisingeri), emerald monitor (Varanus prasinus), and the blue-spotted tree monitor (Varanus macraei). Photo courtesy of Jessica Lyons.

USFWS_Pacific Region Invasive species have become a serious problem in Oregon’s popular Diamond Lake. Our partners at the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, will be trying something new…add one new fish to remove two unwanted ones. Within the next two weeks, tiger trout will soon be swimming in the lake’s clear waters in the hopes that these sterile trout will prey on the unwanted tui chub and the golden shiner, that could potentially take over the lake.

Antibiotic use by country

This month, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released a report that said over the past year, antibiotics sold annually for use in food animals increased to 33,860,000 pounds. That’s a 22 percent increase since five years prior (which was the first time the amount was even measured). Antibiotics in manure that seep into soil have been detected in carrots, lettuce, and green onions. A study of a river in Colorado found several antibiotics everywhere except for “a pristine site in the mountains before the river had encountered urban or agricultural landscapes.” Despite the fact that ranchers have known for decades that antibiotics cause their animals to gain weight, the idea that this has a similar effect on people is somehow just now seeping into the heads of everyone else. The bacterial species that live inside us are older than humans by millennia. Dinosaurs had microbiomes. And our internal ecosystems—the ecosystems that we are—have been dramatically affected by the food and drugs we put into the natural world and, directly or indirectly, back into ourselves. http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/12/obesity-antibiotics-microbiome/421344/

FCE (Family and Community Education)

Meetings are the 2nd Wed of each month at 9:30. Meetings are open to all. We have a pot luck each month along with the lessons presented by a member. For the location and directions to the next meeting, please call Sandie Bolyard at 541-892-2336. Locally, FCE raises money for college scholarships for our Chiloquin High School Seniors. Money is raised through fund-raising projects such as a Thanksgiving turkey dinner fixings raffle with tickets being sold at Kirchers Hardware; Christmas Boutique at the Chiloquin Community Center; Kaleidoscope of Learning at Mazama High School in Klamath Falls. We are very active in our community and you will find FCE volunteers at many local events. Oregon FCE is a non-profit organization of volunteers who have worked on such issues as improving sanitary requirements in hospitals, women’s labor laws, requirements for high school teachers, and funding for the state library. Nationally, we began the school hot lunch program and pushed for bookmobile libraries. FCE asked for and got money from the legislature to fund an OSU research study on the dental caries problem in Oregon. We’ve studied our county governments and monitored their activities; worked on county and state fair boards to improve their quality; sponsored programs on rural road safety, farm safety, home safety, bike safety, Defensive Driving courses, campaigns to get the drunk drivers off the road, and child seatbelt laws. Current educational programs focus on the environment, children and television, literacy, and global issues. Current concerns include addressing the growing need for food banks, for shelters for the homeless, and for reducing the violence against women and children. Oregon FCE members donate thousands of volunteer hours and dollars to these causes.

Chiloquin Branch Library - The library has many ways to get involved and many fun ways to contribute to your local community. Some opportunities: 1. Evening volunteer: The library is open until 6pm on Tuesdays, Weds and Thursdays. We would really appreciate a volunteer who could help us out with closing tasks for the last hour or so on these days (especially Tuesdays). 2. Story time: If you would like to read two or three stories to a small group or preschoolers, and lead them in a simple craft or activity, the library staff can use your help. 3. Summer Reading Program: There are many opportunities during the summer to help out with this very worthwhile program. 4. Honor collections: These are racks of paperback books, magazines and audiovisual materials that patrons may check out without a library card. By offering these collections, more people in the community can be reached and a greater diversity of materials can be made available without incurring the costs of cataloging and processing items for the general collections. The staff would like to have some help in keeping these racks orderly, attractive and relevant. Check with the librarian for information on how to “adopt a rack”. 5. Help with sorting donations. 6. Go through Books for Sale section and tidy it once a month or so. Stop in at the library and see what they need or give them a call at 541-783-3315.
