Denman Wildlife Area - Geography

Geography

The Denman Wildlife Area consists of two units. One, south of the White City Industrial Park, is centered around the Gregory Ponds and contains the Wildlife Area's office. The other, north of the Industrial Park and the Touville State Recreation Site, contains frontage on both sides of the Rogue River and on the Little Butte Creek. Features in this unit also include partially underground World War II-era ammunition storage buildings, ponds and marshes. Recreational facilities include horse trails and a nature loop trail. The gated Touville Road provides access to the interior of the refuge on both sides of the river.

Famous quotes containing the word geography:

    Ktaadn, near which we were to pass the next day, is said to mean “Highest Land.” So much geography is there in their names.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The California fever is not likely to take us off.... There is neither romance nor glory in digging for gold after the manner of the pictures in the geography of diamond washing in Brazil.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Where the heart is, there the muses, there the gods sojourn, and not in any geography of fame. Massachusetts, Connecticut River, and Boston Bay, you think paltry places, and the ear loves names of foreign and classic topography. But here we are; and, if we tarry a little, we may come to learn that here is best. See to it, only, that thyself is here;—and art and nature, hope and fate, friends, angels, and the Supreme Being, shall not absent from the chamber where thou sittest.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
