Hinsdale Interpretive Center are popular tourist stops along Hwy. 38 near Reedsport. Visitors are treated to up-close views of Roosevelt elk, with the herd sometimes reaching as many as 120 elk. Mountains, meadows and marshes also are home to beaver, muskrat, mallards, Canada geese and great blue heron. </font></p><font class="ecxApple-style-span" face="Arial, sans-serif"> <BR>Dean Creek Wildlife Area<br> 63538 Boat Basin Drive<br> Charleston, OR 97420<br> 541-888-5515<BR>Managed by the Bureau of Land Management: 541-756-0100<BR></font><p style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: small;" class="ecxMsoNormal"><font class="ecxApple-style-span" face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 14px;" class="ecxApple-style-span"></span></font></p><p style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: small;" class="ecxMsoNormal"><font class="ecxApple-style-span" face="Arial, sans-serif"><font class="ecxApple-style-span" face="Arial, sans-serif"><a name="_MailAutoSig" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Trish Neal</span></a></font></font></p></div><br> <BR><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:55:38 -0800<br>From: opera_70@yahoo.com<br>To: or-roots@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br>Subject: [or-roots] Dean's Creek<br><br><table border="0" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0"><tbody><tr><td style="font: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-stretch: inherit;" vAlign="top">We had a discussion on the "you know you're from Reedsport when" page on facebook last night about whether it is Dean Creek or Dean's Creek that is next to the Elk refuge east of town.

How big it ever got, what it's reason for existence was etc. It has it's own precinct in the 1920 census but I suspect the 100 plus people are not all in one location.</div><div><br></div><div>Les C</div></td></tr></tbody></table><br>_____________________________________________________
