Summary

[edit]
Description After heavy snowfall residents in Washington, Oregon, northern California and parts of Nevada and Idaho watched warmer air from the Pacific Ocean cause heavy rainfall. The result was one of the worst floods in the Pacific Northwest records.
This photo was taken just south of downtown Milwaukie, looking east on Kellogg Creek. In the foreground are McLoughlin Blvd. (Oregon Highway 99E) – a portion of which had collapsed due to the heavy rainfall and high water – and the Portland Traction Company tracks to Oregon City. In the background is the Southern Pacific trestle (which still stands today and since the 1990s has been a Portland & Western Railroad line).
