Text Appearing Before Image:
feet in 20miles, the Stehekin River, and Rainbow Falls. THE OKANOGAN HIGHLANDS. This region consists of low picturesque mountains, alternat-ing with fertile valleys and studded with lakes protected by openforests of spruce, pine, and tamarac. Opportunities for thehomeseeker, pleasure for the sportsman, and continuous scenesof interest for the tourist are suggested. Here one can yet feelthe presence of the true western spirit of frontiership, for thispart of the state was the last to be thrown open to settlers; andthe Indians are still in full possession of the Colville Indianreservation, comprising some 1,300,000 acres in the southcentral part of the section, extending from the Okanogan riverto the eastern boundary of Ferry county. Under irrigation thevalleys yield liberally of fruits, vegetables and dairy products,and the higher lands are devoted to grain and stock raising.Lumbering plays its part and mining for precious metals as-sumes greater importance than elsewhere in the state.
