Summary of Grazing for the South Fork McKenzie Drainage

Eric Miller

11 July 1994

In researching the of South Fork McKenzie Ive divided the watershedgrazing thehistory

into divisions which experienced similar activity North South West Rebel and

My recordsrationale was ofto provide continuity from one period to the nextChucksney

despite changes in record format allotment herders boundaries names and the of stocktype

grazed at each

of the allotments as theyve changed timethrough on uniform map Figures 1-7 These

boundaries from the maps dating between 1921-1955 contained in the annualare grazing

for the McKenzie River basin from Rainbow to McKenzie Pass and along the South Fork

McKenzie from Rainbow to Frissel of the ElkCrossing and most way up Creek After World

War II sheep grazing became unprofitable in the Cascades Sheep products became cheaper

from Australia and New Zealand Moreover records as early as the turn of the century report

gradual encroachment by trees into meadows Cattle grazing in the Grasshopper/Chucksney

allotments continued until 1976

Descriptions of Divisiofl Histories

North Sheep were trailed into the North division along driveway through the Wickiup

Plains south of South Sister to the Horse Lake Ranger Station and then to the Olallie Guard

Station along the present trail 3530 The Lowder Ridge was generally grazed from the west

end Yankee Mountain to the east end Horsepasture Mountain Kuhns 1917 Kuhns

mentions in this but ofslight pocket gopher activity region no mention rodents at Lowder

Mountain where pocket gopher action today is extraordinary Sheep were grazed primarily

thealong the ridgetops where best forage was The StatementGrazing Policy for the period

1946-1950 describes the Lowder Mtn range as follows Formerly grazed as three individual

units namely Rebel Rock Lowder Mtn and allotments ConiferHorsepasture encroachment

made it necessary to reduce the ofcapacity these three allotment to the ofgrazing only

bands of sheep in 1939.. Elk herds estimated at two to three hundred head graze during the

summer season in this area and it has been given some weight in bothreducing capacity and

seasonal use The area liesgenerally to the west and is isolated from usedheavily

supported sheep until the early 1940s

Rebel The Rebel Rock allotment has confusing history Early maps indicate cattle

allotment and use records indicate it 3-25 headvariously supported cattle from 1915-1922

probably along the lower and the McKenzie basin as the allotment is described inslopes 1922

as very forrough except narrow the alsostrip by river Ingrams 1922 G-Report

indicates that the allotment is better suited to sheep as there was no way to trail cattle into the

Mountain-Rebel Rock range However Ingram states that the Rebel Rock allotmentPyramid

was allotment before 1922 and was to be convertedsheep to cattle The grazing permit

Page 5: Appendix VEG1 1994... · 2016. 10. 22. · Appendix Report VEG1 Summary of Grazing for the South Fork McKenzie Drainage Eric Miller 11 July 1994 In researching the grazing history

cards indicate the reverse there are records of cattle before 1922 on the allotment while in

1931 the records are of sheep no records were found between 1922 and 1931 Further

Ingrain states that there is no way to thereasonably trail cattle into allotment at present as the

trail from Frissel hasCrossing too many switchbacks and is inadvisable It seems plausible

that before 1922 the low country along the river was used for cattle while the high slopes of

Rebel Rock and Pyramid Mountain were used for sheep grazing Cattle were trailed into the

allotment the basin of the South whilealong Fork McKenzie sheep were trailed in along the

same route described above In 1938 the allotmentHorsepasture was combined with Rebel

Rock and the Lowder Ridge The last to the Rebelsheep graze Rock allotment was in 1947

South The ofgrazing the southhistory region is generally uncompliŁated The earliest

records of sheep grazing are in 1916 though it was beforeundoubtedly grazed this time and

the allotment bands ofsupported approximately sheep until the allotment was discontinued

in 1945 Kuhns reports no serious ofovergrazing the allotment in 1916 The Grazing Policy

Statement for the period 1946-1950 provides some into the laterinsight history of this region

Horse Lake-- This consisted offormerly two units known as Packsaddle and Wildcat

allotments and was grazed by preference permittee J.W Fisher with bands of 1200 head

each They were combined into one unit in 1940 and called the Horse Lake

allotment This action was andsuggested approved by the permittee In 1944 J.W Fisher

sold his sheep and abandoned his preference Reduction was due primarily to conifer

encroachment and resultant loss of net usable area In recent years an added emphasis has

been given to recreational use about the many lakes in the allotment.. The driveway via
