KLICKITAT COUNTY
TWIN BUTTES (LORENA)
Klickitat Council of Defense
August 18, 1917: "A unique plan for the protection of the grain crop in the Klickitat valley against incendiary fires has been arranged by the Klickitat Council of Defense. A telephone line will be run to the top of the highest of the Twin Buttes, two miles east of Goldendale, commanding a view of the entire Klickitat valley wheat belt, and a guard will be stationed on the summit of the butte every night for the next thirty days, to keep a lookout for fire."
