I have always found the history of Zane Grey and southern Oregon rivers to be magical. Grey frequented that region to contemplate, write and, of course, fish. I watched a wonderful episode (#367) on Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) tonight entitled Rogues of the Rogue (River).

A rustic log cabin was highlighted at Winkle Bar, a retreat where Zane Grey reportedly tucked himself away near the Rogue River. This sense of isolation, privacy, wildness is very appealing about now. Wanderlust rules!!! (Interesting Forum re Zane Grey)
