Ernest Frye with his 1935 Dodge coupe at McKenzie Pass summit in Oregon, He was probably headed over into Central Oregon on a deer hunting trip. View full size.
[Who was he? A relative? Family friend? Do you know who took the photo? -tterrace]
Ernest Frye was my father. He lived in North Bend, Oregon from 1921 until his death in 1974. He made a trip to Central Oregon each year for a week long deer hunting trip and I would assume this photo was taken on such a trip, probably by a hunting partner. In the 1940s, he made the trip with a 1929 Ford sedan, towing a trailer with the hunting supplies. He liked the '29 Ford because he could drive it anywhere in the woods like a Jeep.
