Diverse Woodlands

Crawl Through Log

Klamath Basin history comes alive at the Klamath County Museum in Oregon. The former armory was built in 1932 and features art deco elements. It was a popular venue for major musicians and groups in the 1940′s and 50′s. The displays include Indian artifacts and dioramas, taxidermy birds, relics from pioneer days and classic photographs of life a century-ago in Klamath County.

Recently NatureMaker installed eight trees at the museum for the “Forests for Everyone – Klamath’s Living Legacy,” the theme of a major new exhibit that just opened in March of 2010. With the help of NatureMaker Steel Art Trees, the new 1,700 square foot exhibit explores the diverse woodlands that are found across Klamath County’s rugged landscape. Included in the exhibit are five Ponderosa Pine trees of various heights and widths, one Cedar and Aspen tree and one crawl-through Douglas Fir hollow log which gives youngsters a chance to discover what animals can be found in downed trees.  Check out photos of the exhibit here.
