Near Tierra del Puma? Some may know it as "Lake of the Woods,” just north of Henness Pass Road, the old wagon train trail.
From Whispering Winds: Was this where Vicki Dorin fell and lost that whistle? Down below in that meadow browned by autumn is where Skip McGregor found a clue.
This is the type of helicopter that Jake Cahill flew in "Legend of Tierra del Puma". Thumbs up to LAPD Air Support! Photo by G. Grossman.
Is this the inspiration for Whispering Wind Mountain and nearby Tear Drop Pass? Ah, hikers near Donner, CA, might know this as….yep, "Castle Peak” as seen along the Pacific Crest Trail and along Highway 80!

From Sierra Traveler: The original 1600-foot granite tunnel of the Transcontinental Railroad chiseled out by Chinese laborers in the 1800s. Located at Donner Summit in the Sierra near the remaining snow sheds and rock walls. Somewhere in that tunnel lurked Joy Lee's assailant.
From Sierra Traveler: Near Meadow Lake and what appears to be the cabin where Jake shared a cup of java with the "Dozer Doc" and learns of a curious clue.
From Mueller's Marbles: Is this the momma bear and cub that Lomax ran into? Let’s hope not! That’s a Grizzly, not a black bear. No Grizzly bears in CA. Photo taken by good friend Gail Gilbert while hiking in Yellowstone… at a distance!
