Talk:Salt Creek (Middle Fork Willamette River tributary)

Some research I did
Not really related to the creek, but about the area, so could be used in related articles:

The Pengra Pass rail route, part of the Cascade Line, was built by the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1926 and was later sold to Union Pacific. The completion of the line linked the Willamette Valley to California via Klamath Falls, an alternate route to the Siskiyou Pass crossing into California. The route follows Salt Creek and Route 58 up the Cascade foothills, then crosses the creek on a trestle bridge and steeply ascends the canyon, staying south of the highway while climbing to Pengra Pass near Odell Lake.
