Hanley
Farm
Archaeological evidence shows that Native Americans occupied this
site at least 2,100 years ago. Hanley Farm dates from 1852, when
pioneers David Clinton and Archibald Welton filed a donation land
claim. In 1857 Michael Hanley and his wife, Martha, bought the farm
from the original settlers. The Hanleys raised their large family
on the farm, while acquiring other tracts of land elsewhere thus
building an agricultural empire.

Applegate
River
The Applegate River originates and flows through the Applegate Ranger
District. Anadromous fish species such as silver and chinook salmon
and steelhead, spawn and are reared in the Applegate River before
making their way to the ocean via the Rogue River. Wildlife such
as deer, turkey, occasional elk, and black bear, make their home
along the river and within the forest lands and meadows of the district.
McKee
Covered Bridge
The rustic, well-known covered bridge spanning the Applegate River,
just eight miles from the California border, was built in 1917 by
contractor Jason Hartman and his son Wesley on land donated by Aldelbert
"Deb" McKee.
