About the Photos
Our holdings include hundreds of glass and film negatives/transparencies that we've scanned ourselves; in addition, many other photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs) in the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) They are adjusted, restored and reworked by your webmaster in accordance with his aesthetic sensibilities before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here. All of these images (including "derivative works") are protected by copyright laws of the United States and other jurisdictions and may not be sold, reproduced or otherwise used for commercial purposes without permission.

Just drove by and took this photo. One mile west of Willamette pass summit on highway 58. Lot of snow this year!
[Thank you! Just this week when I posted my photo on my Facebook page I wanted to include the exact spot, but once I finally found it the Google street view image turned out to be horrible. - tterrace]
