Geographical story
- LT85 • "The Klamath emptied into the ocean at Wilson Creek, about six miles north of where it now goes into the ocean at Rek'woy. There were high bluffs of rocks between the river and the ocean all the way from Rek'woy to Wilson Creek which kept the river in its course to 'O Men, where it emptied into the ocean."
