My friend Robin and I have also searched for the Salmon river crossing and found a potential site. The GPS coordinates for that site are: 45.28510 -121.70831. If you cross the river there you can follow a faint roadbed to Hwy26. There is a Barlow Road sign on a tree at location 45.28431 -121.71022 t...

I saw this ship wreck about a half mile North of the Warrior Rock Lighthouse September, 2020
