Jim - Just in case anyone has forgotten where Hoopa is, check out:
http://northcoastphotos.com/Lympa_2007_06_02.htm
and the aerial photo I just posted at:
www.northcoastphotos.com/USCGPhot/CessnaRedwoodCreek.jpg
which is Redwood Creek, a couple of ridges from the Trinity and 
Klamath Rivers near Hoopa and part of the country that the Indians 
just called "Rivers" a little over a century ago.
Fire up that VW, Jim, and stop by for a visit!
