Post Card No. 95 – Klamath valley

Klamath County constructed a fairgrounds facility just east of town in the early 1900s. The grandstands are seen slightly above and left of center in this post card photo taken around 1907. The following year the fairgrounds were moved to a new location at the south end of Lake Ewauna. The Southern Pacific Railroad came through the old fairgrounds site in 1909. A cluster of trees at the Stukel Ranch is seen at upper left. The ranch was located just south of the A Canal, near where the YMCA is today. South Sixth Street is seen at upper left, extending toward another cluster of trees at the community of Altamont.
