How to Protect Yourself & Others
KNOW HOW IT
SPREADS
There is currently no vaccine to prevent
coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The best way to prevent illness is to
avoid being exposed to this virus.
The virus is thought to spread mainly
from person-to-person.
• Between people who are in close
contact with one another (within
about 6 feet).
• Through respiratory droplets
produced when an infected person
coughs, sneezes or talks.
• These droplets can land in the
mouths or noses of people who are
nearby or possibly be inhaled into
the lungs.
• Some recent studies have
suggested that COVID-19 may
be spread by people who are not
showing symptoms.
WASH YOUR
HANDS OFTEN
• Wash your hands often with soap
and water for at least 20 seconds
especially after you have been in a
public place, or after blowing your
nose, coughing, or sneezing.
• If soap and water are not readily
available, use a hand sanitizer
that contains at least 60% alcohol.
Cover all surfaces of your hands
and rub them together until they
feel dry.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose,
and mouth with unwashed hands.
AVOID CLOSE
CONTACT
• Avoid close contact with people
who are sick
• Put distance between yourself and
other people.
• Remember that some people
without symptoms may be able
to spread virus.
• Keeping distance from others is
especially important for people
who are at higher risk of getting
very sick.

Oregon
Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region on the
West Coast of the United States. The Columbia River
delineates much of Oregon’s northern boundary with
Washington, while the Snake River delineates much of
its eastern boundary with Idaho. The 42° north parallel
delineates the southern boundary with California and
Nevada.
Oregon has been home to many Indigenous nations for
thousands of years. The first European traders, explorers,
and settlers began exploring what is now Oregon’s
Pacific coast in the early-mid 1500s. As early as 1565,
the Spanish began sending vessels northeast from the
Philippines, riding the Kuroshio Current in a sweeping
circular route across the northern part of the Pacific.
In 1592, Juan de Fuca undertook detailed mapping
and studies of ocean currents in the Pacific Northwest,
including the Oregon coast as well as the strait now
bearing his name. Spanish ships – 250 in as many
years – would typically not land before reaching Cape
Mendocino in California, but some landed or wrecked
in what is now Oregon. Nehalem tales recount strangers
and the discovery of items like chunks of beeswax
and a lidded silver vase, likely connected to the 1707
wreck of the San Francisco Xavier.
In 1843, an autonomous government was formed in the
Oregon Country, and the Oregon Territory was created
in 1848. Oregon became the 33rd state of the U.S. on
February 14, 1859. Today, with 4 million people over
98,000 square miles (250,000 km2), Oregon is the ninth
largest and 27th most populous U.S. state. The capital,
Salem, is the second-most populous city in Oregon,
with 169,798 residents. Portland, with 647,805, ranks
as the 26th among U.S. cities. The Portland metropolitan
area, which also includes the city of Vancouver,
Washington, to the north, ranks the 25th largest metro
area in the nation, with a population of 2,453,168.

Oregon is one of the most geographically diverse states
in the U.S., marked by volcanoes, abundant bodies of
water, dense evergreen and mixed forests, as well as
high deserts and semi-arid shrublands. At 11,249 feet
(3,429 m), Mount Hood, a stratovolcano, is the state’s
highest point. Oregon’s only national park, Crater Lake
National Park, comprises the caldera surrounding Crater
Lake, the deepest lake in the United States. The
state is also home to the single largest organism in the
world, Armillaria ostoyae, a fungus that runs beneath
2,200 acres (8.9 km2) of the Malheur National Forest.
Because of its diverse landscapes and waterways, Oregon’s
economy is largely powered by various forms of
agriculture, fishing, and hydroelectric power. Oregon is
also the top timber producer of the contiguous United
States, and the timber industry dominated the state’s
economy in the 20th century. Technology is another
one of Oregon’s major economic forces, beginning in
the 1970s with the establishment of the Silicon Forest
and the expansion of Tektronix and Intel. Sportswear
company Nike, Inc., headquartered in Beaverton, is the
state’s largest public corporation with an annual revenue
of $30.6 billion.

Etymology
The earliest evidence of the name Oregon
has Spanish origins. The term “orejón”
(meaning “big ear”) comes from the
historical chronicle Relación de la Alta y
Baja California (1598)written by the new
Spaniard Rodrigo Montezuma and made
reference to the Columbia River when
the Spanish explorers penetrated into the
actual North American territory that became
part of the Viceroyalty of New Spain. This
chronicle is the first topographical and
linguistic source with respect to the place
name Oregon. There are also two other
sources with Spanish origins, such as the
word oregano, referring to a plant which
grows in the southern part of the region.
It is possible that the American territory
was named by the Spaniards, as there is
a stream in Spain called the “Arroyo del
Oregón” (which is located in the province
of Ciudad Real); it is also possible that the
“j” in the Spanish phrase “El Orejón” was
later corrupted into a “g”, and in context
might refer to the ‘earful’ of the massive
Columbia River at its mouth.
Another early use of the name, spelled
Ouragon, was by Major Robert Rogers in
a 1765 petition to the Kingdom of Great
Britain. The term referred to the thenmythical
River of the West (the Columbia
River). By 1778, the spelling had shifted to
Oregon. Rogers wrote:
... from the Great Lakes towards the
Head of the Mississippi, and from thence
to the River called by the Indians Ouragon
...
One theory is that the name comes from
the French word ouragan (“windstorm”
or “hurricane”), which was applied to
the River of the West based on Native
American tales of powerful Chinook winds
on the lower Columbia River, or perhaps
from firsthand French experience with the
Chinook winds of the Great Plains. At the
time, the River of the West was thought to
rise in western Minnesota and flow west
through the Great Plains.

Crater Lake
National Park
Crater Lake National Park is an American
national park located in southern Oregon.
Established in 1902, Crater Lake is the fiftholdest
national park in the United States and
the only national park in Oregon. The park
encompasses the caldera of Crater Lake,
a remnant of a destroyed volcano, Mount
Mazama, and the surrounding hills and forests.
The lake is 1,949 feet (594 m) deep at its
deepest point, which makes it the deepest
lake in the United States, the second-deepest
in North America and the ninth-deepest
in the world. Crater Lake is often referred to
as the seventh-deepest lake in the world,
but this former listing excludes the approximately
3,000-foot (910 m) depth of subglacial
Lake Vostok in Antarctica, which resides
under nearly 13,000 feet (4,000 m) of ice,
and the recent report of a 2,740-foot (840
m) maximum depth for Lake O’Higgins/San
Martin, located on the border of Chile and
Argentina. However, when comparing its average
depth of 1,148 feet (350 m) to the average
depth of other deep lakes, Crater Lake
becomes the deepest in the Western Hemisphere
and the third-deepest in the world.
The impressive average depth of this volcanic
lake is due to the nearly symmetrical
4,000-foot-deep (1,200 m) caldera formed
7,700 years ago during the violent climactic
eruptions and subsequent collapse of Mount
Mazama and the relatively moist climate that
is typical of the crest of the Cascade Range.
The caldera rim ranges in elevation from
7,000 to 8,000 feet (2,100 to 2,400 m). The
United States Geological Survey benchmarked
elevation of the lake surface is 6,178
feet (1,883 m). The national park encompasses
183,224 acres (286.3 sq mi; 741.5
km2). Crater Lake has no streams flowing
into or out of it. All water that enters the lake
is eventually lost from evaporation or subsurface
seepage. The lake’s water commonly
has a striking blue hue, and the lake is refilled
entirely from direct precipitation in the
form of snow and rain.

Multnomah Falls
Multnomah Falls is a waterfall located on
Multnomah Creek in the Columbia River
Gorge, east of Troutdale, between Corbett
and Dodson, Oregon, United States. The
waterfall is accessible from the Historic
Columbia River Highway and Interstate
84. Spanning two tiers on basalt cliffs, it is
the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon
at 620 ft (189 m) in height.
The land surrounding the falls was developed
by Simon Benson in the earlytwentieth
century, with a pathway, viewing
bridge, and adjacent lodge being
constructed in 1925. The Multnomah Falls
Lodge and the surrounding footpaths at
the falls were added to the National Register
of Historic Places in 1981. Contemporarily,
the state of Oregon maintains a
switchback trail that ascends to a talus
slope 100 feet (30 m) above the falls, and
descends to an observation deck that
overlooks the falls’ edge. The falls attract
over two million visitors each year, making
it the most-visited natural recreation site in
the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
The falls drops in two major steps, split
into an upper falls of 542 feet (165 m) and
a lower falls of 69 feet (21 m), with a gradual
9 foot (3 m) drop in elevation between
the two, so the total height of the waterfall
is conventionally given as 620 feet (189
m). The two drops are due to a zone of
more easily eroded basalt at the base of
the upper falls.
Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall
in the state of Oregon. It is credited
by a sign at the site of the falls, and by
the United States Forest Service, as the
second tallest year-round waterfall in the
United States. However, there has been
some skepticism surrounding this distinction,
as Multnomah Falls is listed as the
156th tallest waterfall in the United States
by the World Waterfall Database (this site
does not distinguish between seasonal
and year-round waterfalls). The World
Waterfall Database disputes claims that
Multnomah Falls is the fourth-tallest waterfall
in the United States, which has been
claimed in such sources as the Encyclopedia
of World Geography.
Underground springs from Larch Mountain
are the year-round source of water
for the waterfall, augmented by spring
runoff from the mountain’s snowpack and
rainwater during the other seasons. This
spring is the source of Multnomah Creek.
Mount Hood
Mount Hood is a potentially active stratovolcano
in the Cascade Volcanic Arc. It was
formed by a subduction zone on the Pacific
coast and rests in the Pacific Northwest region
of the United States. It is located about
50 miles (80 km) east-southeast of Portland,
on the border between Clackamas and
Hood River counties. In addition to being
Oregon’s highest mountain, it is one of the
loftiest mountains in the nation based on
its prominence, and it offers the only yearround
lift-served skiing in North America.
The height assigned to Mount Hood’s
snow-covered peak has varied over its history.
Modern sources point to three different
heights: 11,249 feet (3,429 m), a 1991
adjustment of a 1986 measurement by
the U.S. National Geodetic Survey (NGS),
11,240 feet (3,426 m) based on a 1993 scientific
expedition, and 11,239 feet (3,425.6
m) of slightly older origin. The peak is home
to 12 named glaciers and snowfields. It is
the highest point in Oregon and the fourth
highest in the Cascade Range. Mount Hood
is considered the Oregon volcano most likely
to erupt, though based on its history, an
explosive eruption is unlikely. Still, the odds
of an eruption in the next 30 years are estimated
at between 3 and 7%, so the U.S.
Geological Survey (USGS) characterizes it
as “potentially active”, but the mountain is
informally considered dormant.

Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area
The Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area is located on the Oregon Coast, stretching
approximately 40 miles (64 km) north of the Coos River in North Bend to the
Siuslaw River in Florence, and adjoining Honeyman State Park on the west. It is part
of Siuslaw National Forest and is administered by the United States Forest Service.
The Oregon Dunes are a unique area of windswept sand. They are the largest expanse
of coastal sand dunes in North America and one of the largest expanses of
temperate coastal sand dunes in the world, with some dunes reaching 500 feet (150
m) above sea level. They are the product of millions of years of erosion by wind and
rain on the Oregon Coast. The Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area provides numerous
recreational activities, including off-highway vehicle (OHV) use, hiking, photography,
fishing, canoeing, horseback riding, and camping. The Carter Dunes Trail
and Oregon Dunes Day Use provide forest access for the disabled.
Frank Herbert’s science-fiction novel Dune was inspired (in part) by the author’s research
and fascination with the area.
History
The Oregon Dunes are over 100,000 years old and stretch approximately 40 miles
(64 km). The youngest dunes, which are the closest to the ocean, began forming
about 7,000 years ago. Studies of individual sand grains show that these sands were
carried down from the mountains by the Umpqua, Siuslaw, and other smaller rivers.
In 1963, Congressman Robert B. Duncan introduced a
bill to establish a national seashore at the Oregon Dunes;
it unanimously passed the Senate Interior Committee.
Senator Wayne Morse opposed provisions of the bill
that increased environmental protections by restricting
property uses In 1972 Congress set aside 32,186 acres
(13,025 ha) of the total dune area as the Oregon Dunes
National Recreation Area. The actual dunes are managed
by the U.S. Forest Service, while the remaining area
is private or county land.
Geology
The sand dunes were formed by wind and water over
time. The dune formation is mainly dependent on the
wind. In the summer the wind blows from the north and
northwest at 12–16 miles per hour (19–26 km/h). Mountain
barriers near the coast deflect the wind currents,
forming the sand into many different shapes. In the winter
the winds are much slower (except during storms when
the winds can reach up to 100 miles per hour (160 km/h)),
coming from the south and southwest. These winds move
large amounts of sand, reshaping the dunes’ structure.
Water also plays a role in dune formation. Waves and
tides dredge sand from the ocean floor and deposit it
onto the beaches, where the wind takes over.
The water currents also create marshy areas where
standing water is several feet deep. Upward pressure
causes the sand grains to become saturated and float.
This process results in quicksand. Quicksand is found in
the low, unvegetated areas between the dunes.
The barrage lakes are the largest lakes in Oregon Dunes
National Recreation Area. They were formed when
streams flowing west from the Coast Range foothills were
dammed up by the rapidly developing dunes.

Smith Rock State Park
Smith Rock State Park is an American state park located in central Oregon’s
High Desert near the communities of Redmond and Terrebonne.
The day use area of the park is open daily from dawn to dusk. The park
also has a camping area as well that accommodates tent camping only.
Its sheer cliffs of tuff and basalt are ideal for rock climbing of all difficulty
levels. Smith Rock is generally considered the birthplace of modern
American sport climbing, and is host to cutting-edge climbing routes. It is
popular for sport climbing, traditional climbing, multi-pitch climbing, and
bouldering.
Geology
The geology of Smith Rocks is volcanic. It is made up of layers of recent
basalt flows overlaying older Clarno ash and tuff formations. Approximately
30 million years ago, a large caldera was formed when overlying
rock collapsed into an underground lava chamber. This created a huge
amount of rock and ash debris that filled the caldera. That material solidified
into rock, becoming Smith Rock tuff. Rhyolite flows intruded along
faults in the Smith Rock Tuff. A half million years ago, basalt lava flows
from nearby volcanoes covered the older tuff.
More recently, the Crooked River cut its way through the layers of rock to
create today’s geographic features. Smith Rock itself is a 3,200-foot (980
m)-high ridge (above sea level) with a sheer cliff-face overlooking a bend
in the Crooked River (elev. 2600 ft), making the cliffs about 600 feet high.
History
The origin of the Smith Rock name is uncertain.
One story, published the Albany States Rights
Democrat in 1867, states that Smith Rock was
named after John Smith, who was Linn County
Sheriff and an Oregon state legislator in the 1850s
and 1860s. The newspaper article credits Smith
with “discovering” the rock. Another story claims
the rock was named after a soldier named Smith
who fell to his death from the rock in 1863 while
his unit was camped nearby.
The State of Oregon obtained the park property
between 1960 and 1975 from the City of Redmond
and Harry and Diane Kem.
Climbing
The park has many miles of developed trails for
hiking. The trails have viewpoints along the routes
that overlook the Crooked River and nearby rock
formations. The two main trails are the Summit Trail
and Misery Ridge. The park’s trail network links to
neighboring Forest Service and Bureau of Land
Management trails on adjacent public lands. The

soil and native vegetation on the steep
hillsides in the park are very sensitive
to damage, so visitors are required to
stay on established trails.
The park contains the first U.S. climb
rated 5.14 (8b+). The area is well
known for its challenging climbing
routes and attracts high level climbers.
In 1983, Alan Watts began to use sport
climbing ethics which pushed American
climbing to new levels. Shortly
after, between 1992 and 2009, about
500 new climbing routes were added.
This brought climbers from all over the
world as Smith Rock became the world
capital for sport climbing. To this day,
the park still attracts climbers from
around the globe. The winter weather
is typically cold (below freezing), but
climbers still make the journey due to
the reduced traffic on routes. Summer
months regularly reach the 100s
°F (40s °C). Some climbing routes are
closed periodically for the protection
of nesting birds of prey.
Smith Rock State Park has more than
1,800 rock climbing routes as of 2010.
The park is broken up into walls and
have names commonly used by the
climbing community.
Christian Brothers
The Christian Brothers area is a large
group of rock spires in between Asterisk
Pass and The Dihedrals. The walls
that make up the Christian Brothers
area are the Prophet Wall, The Beard,
Testament Slab and the Combination
Blocks. There are several routes in
this area that are noteworthy such as
Wartley’s Revenge, Revelations with
its high first bolt off the ground, Double
Trouble, BBQ the Pope, Heresy, Rude
Boys, and Scarface and Chemical Ali.
The Dihedrals
The Dihedrals are located between the
Four Horseman and Asterisk Pass just
pass the Morning Glory Wall. It is one
of the more popular areas to climb in
the park with easy classics like Cinnamon
Slab, Bunny Face. It has some
more moderate climbs of high quality
such as Moonshine Dihedral and Karate
Crack as well some of the more
difficult and famous climbs such as
Heinous Cling, Chain Reaction and To
Bolt or Not to Be.
The Upper and Lower Gorge
The Gorge contains more climbs that
are Traditional Routes rather than Sport
Routes. Climbers also need to be fairly
stout climbers as most routes start in
the low 5.12’s. The rock is mainly basalt,
fairly different from the welded tuff
you find in most of the other climbing
areas in Smith Rock State Park. The
lower gorge is a location to get away
from the heat of the late spring, summer
and early fall.
The Marsupials
The Marsupials are the farthest climbing
area from the main entrance of
the park. To get there, go across the
bridge and turn right on Wolf Tree
Trail. Follow this around the canyon
following the Crooked River and turn
up Burma Road. The beginning of the
Marsupials starts just off Burma Road.
The three main areas in the Marsupials
are Koala Rock, The Wombat and
Brogan Spire.[28]
Famed climber Beth Rodden made the
first female ascent of The Optimist located
on the “Koala Rock” side of the
Marsupials.

Hult Center for the
Performing Arts
The Hult Center for the Performing Arts is a performing
arts venue in Eugene, Oregon.
The Hult Center is located downtown on Willamette
Street between 6th & 7th Avenues, adjacent
to the Graduate Eugene (previously Hilton
Eugene) and Conference Center. Built using
funds that were approved by voters in 1978, the
Hult Center and the Hilton were completed in
1982 as part of the same urban renewal project.
The Hult Center is operated by the City of Eugene
and is one of two performing arts venues owned
by the City. Cuthbert Amphitheater, located in
Eugene’s Alton Baker Park, is also owned by the
City and is operated by Kesey Enterprises.
Twenty-seven architectural firms competed for
the opportunity to design the Center, but in the
end, the Eugene City Council awarded the contract
to the New York firm of Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer
Associates. The firm had previously designed
the $7.5-million, 2,700-seat Minneapolis Orchestra
Hall and the $13-million Boettcher Concert
Hall at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts.
Jordan Schnitzer
Museum of Art
Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art (JSMA) is an art
museum located on the campus of the University
of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon. The original building
was designed by Ellis F. Lawrence as part of
his “main university quadrangle,” now known as
the Memorial Quadrangle. Its first Director, Asian
art collector, and female museum specialist Gertrude
Bass Warner also influenced the buildings
design, particularly its innovative climate control
measures.
The only academic museum in Oregon accredited
by the American Alliance of Museums, the
JSMA hosts exhibitions and houses collections
of historic and contemporary art. It manages research
and educational programs and publishes
resources in support the university’s academic
mission, including outreach initiatives to serve
the diverse interests of off-campus communities.
The JSMA’s standing galleries present from
its holdings of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and
American art. Special exhibition galleries display
curated artwork both from these permanent collections
and outside collections, representing
cultures across the globe, past and present. It
aims to provide an atmosphere of discovery –
the JSMA mission statement includes this guiding
principle: “We recognize our visitors’ different
learning styles and the needs of a multigenerational
and diverse audience”.

National Gallery of Art, and the Salon des

Shelton McMurphey
Johnson House
The Shelton McMurphey Johnson House, or Castle
on the Hill, is a Victorian-era residence that is
listed on the National Register of Historical Places.
It is named for the three families who called
it home over the years. The house is now open
for public tours and pre-arranged private events.
The Queen Anne-styled house, built in 1888 for T.
W. Shelton, was designed by Salem, Oregon architect
Walter D. Pugh. It has undergone several
modifications, including an enlargement in the
1910s for Robert McMurphey, and a remodel by
Curtis and Eva Johnson in 1951 which restored
its original turret. The house suffered two major
fires, one during its initial construction, and a second
one in 1950 during the Johnson remodel.
The house was deeded to Lane County by Eva
Johnson in 1976. It is now owned by the City of
Eugene and kept open to the public by Shelton
McMurphey Johnson Associates, a nonprofit
group.
