Mad Creek Canyon road c. 1920s The road up Mad Creek Canyon. Quote is from Doris Ives: "This is the road father put up the Mad Creek Canyon. We call it the Canyon Road. This is a very gentle part. Most of it is a little scary; one side drops off steeply to the stream, and the uphill side is a cliff. It took a lot of dynamite to create the road through the rock cliffs."
Description of image: a narrow road cut into the side of a mountain. The tracks of a horse-drawn wagon are visible in the dirt of the road.
Scans created from photocopy images of a scrapbook made by Yampatika for the Mad Creek Discovery box kit.
Mr. Courtney Ives and wife Emma Mae Gaskill Ives and daughters Bernice Ives [Dorr Rossi] and Doris Ives [Knott] helped run the ranch with Dr. George Ives, Courtney's brother, who owned the Mad Creek Guest Ranch.
