The Alsea were a Native American tribe of Western Oregon.  When Lewis and Clark reached them, the Alsea may have numbered about a thousand. By 1910, as a result of disease and displacement, they were reduced to a 29 or so individuals, who took refuge with the nearby Siletz tribe. They are probably extinct, although a few members may be mixed in with the Confederated Tribes of Siletz, many of whom live on the Siletz Reservation, where the remaining members were relocated. 

I read the first book and it felt a lot like a novel-length star trek episode but super gay. the summaries I’ve read of the next few books seem less star trekky but I hold out hope for the gay

Aren’t waterfalls wonderful? This is Oregon’s Alsea Falls, where the Alsea River surged over smooth rock slabs on a warm spring day, creating quite a sound.

Some good old geology along the Alsea river highway, Oregon 34. And I forgot my geology guide book. #geology #formation #folding #Oregon #oregongeology #alsea #layers #stratification #roadcut #roadsidegeology #earth #geo #rock #rocks #dirt #earth (at Alsea River)
