Location: From K-Falls, take Hwy 140 East toward Lakeview (Hwy 39 goes south to Merrill and CA at this junction). Mark your mileage at this point. Take Hwy 140 east about 13 miles to the small town of Dairy. Just a few miles beyond Dairy (still on hwy 140) you will cross Hilderand Road and the next junction you come to will be the Yonna Valley store (on the left ) and Bliss Road. (It may or may not be Bliss Road on the left--the Delorme says it's Squaw Flat Road.) Turn right at this junction. The pond will be on your right on this road about 1/4--1/2 mile from the junction. There is little space to pull off the road so be careful. Although there's usually not much traffic, there are trucks and hills and curves. Use caution when pulling over. If you continue straight on this road it will bear right and then you will come to a stop at Hwy 70. Turn right to return to Hwy 140 in a mile or two and then turn left on Hwy 140 to return to K-Falls; or turn left and go into Bonanza and on to Gerber Reservoir using the directions for that location.
Habitat and Birds: A wide variety of water birds can be found here from shorebirds to ducks.

Location, Habitat and Birds: Drive from Klamath Falls via highway 39 and watch for the Dehlinger Lane road. Take it to Hill Road and turn north watching for a gravel pit on the east side of the road. Drive through the gravel pit and stay on the road that takes you through it. This used to be the road that would take you up to the summit area of Stukel Mtn. Recent closures have changed this route. There is now a gate that blocks the road. The road that by passes the blockage is about 2.3 miles up from the orange gate as you leave the quarry and start up the mountain. It is newly graveled (for a little ways) and goes off to the left. It is about a mile long and then cuts back over to the original road. You just have to make a mental note and "landmark" it so you remember to turn off to the right on the way back down. Nothing is signed but the gravel helps-it's the only one that has new gravel (or maybe any gravel). Check for Bank and N. Rough-winged Swallows in the quarry before you reach the BLM gate. The surrounding sage habitat is good for sage species like Sage Thrasher and Brewer's Sparrow. As you enter the wooded regions, check the mountain mahogany for Blue-gray Gnatcatchers. Gray Flycatchers and Ash-throated Flycatchers can be found in the junipers and look for Pygmy Nuthatches in the pines. As you gain elevation, you will find Western Tanagers, Black-headed Grosbeaks, and Cassin's Finches. The most famous bird from this location was a Black-chinned Sparrow in 1990 and Black-throated Sparrow has been found here as well. At 4.1 miles from the orange gate, look for a road that goes off to the east. This will take you to Aspen Pond. The road is rough but this location has produced Virginia Warbler. There is a good aspen grove that might produce a Red-naped Sapsucker or other woodpeckers. Near the top, check the hummingbirds for the odd Broad-tailed Hummer and keep an eye out for species like Chukar, Rock Wren, Lazuli Bunting, Green-tailed Towhee, Fox Sparrow, and Lewis's Woodpecker.

Location: From K-Falls, follow South Sixth Street which is Hwy 39 to the junction of Hwy 140 east. Take Hwy 140 East toward Lakeview (Hwy 39 goes south to Merrill and CA at this junction). Mark your mileage at this point. Take Hwy 140 east about 13 miles to the small town of Dairy. Turn onto Hwy 70 east (right turn) at Dairy and go to Bonanza (be sure to observe the 25 mph signs in Bonanza--they ticket). Continue straight thru Bonanza to East Langell Valley Road (Hwy 70 ends in Bonanza and then essentially becomes E. Langell Valley Road.) Follow this road to the community of Lorella. Abut 2.5 miles past Lorella you will come to Gerber Road. Turn left. There is a sign to Gerber Reservoir at this junction. Follow this road to Gerber Reservoir.

Location: Take a 4x4 vehicle and extra water. To get here from Bonanza go southeast to Lorella then take Gerber Road northeast off the Langell Valley Road. From the Gerber Reservoir Road turn right onto Round Valley Road and follow this dirt track to the southeast where you will come to County Road 41-14E-11. Turn right onto this road and drive south until you come to a fork in the road, turn right again and go another 5.1 miles to the Bumpheads Campground.
Habitat and Birds: This unique small reservoir is the headwaters of the East Branch of the Lost River. It is surrounded by a mix of western juniper, mountain mahogany, bitter brush and ponderosa pine. This is a great place to camp and well worth a early summer trip to bird. The summer birds of this area are Green tailed Towhee, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Lewis's Woodpecker, Ash-throated Flycatcher, Western Tanager, Gray Flycatcher, Pinyon Jay, and great shorebirds starting in mid July through late August. In the evening listen for Flammulated Owls and Northern Pygmy-Owls. Watch out for the mosquitoes after mid May. There are ticks here in spring so beware.

Location: From K-Falls, take Hwy 140 East toward Lakeview (Hwy 39 goes south to Merrill and CA at this junction). Mark your mileage at this point. Take Hwy 140 east about 13 miles to the small town of Dairy. Just a few miles beyond Dairy (still on hwy 140) you will cross Hilderand Road and the next junction you come to will be the Yonna Valley store (on the left ) and Bliss Road. (It may or may not be Bliss Road on the left--the Delorme says it's Squaw Flat Road.) Turn right at this junction. The pond will be on your right on this road about 1/4--1/2 mile from the junction. There is little space to pull off the road so be careful. Although there's usually not much traffic, there are trucks and hills and curves. Use caution when pulling over. If you continue straight on this road it will bear right and then you will come to a stop at Hwy 70. Turn right to return to Hwy 140 in a mile or two and then turn left on Hwy 140 to return to K-Falls; or turn left and go into Bonanza and on to Gerber Reservoir using the directions for that location.
Habitat and Birds: A wide variety of water birds can be found here from shorebirds to ducks.

Location, Habitat and Birds: Drive from Klamath Falls via highway 39 and watch for the Dehlinger Lane road. Take it to Hill Road and turn north watching for a gravel pit on the east side of the road. Drive through the gravel pit and stay on the road that takes you through it. This used to be the road that would take you up to the summit area of Stukel Mtn. Recent closures have changed this route. There is now a gate that blocks the road. The road that by passes the blockage is about 2.3 miles up from the orange gate as you leave the quarry and start up the mountain. It is newly graveled (for a little ways) and goes off to the left. It is about a mile long and then cuts back over to the original road. You just have to make a mental note and "landmark" it so you remember to turn off to the right on the way back down. Nothing is signed but the gravel helps-it's the only one that has new gravel (or maybe any gravel). Check for Bank and N. Rough-winged Swallows in the quarry before you reach the BLM gate. The surrounding sage habitat is good for sage species like Sage Thrasher and Brewer's Sparrow. As you enter the wooded regions, check the mountain mahogany for Blue-gray Gnatcatchers. Gray Flycatchers and Ash-throated Flycatchers can be found in the junipers and look for Pygmy Nuthatches in the pines. As you gain elevation, you will find Western Tanagers, Black-headed Grosbeaks, and Cassin's Finches. The most famous bird from this location was a Black-chinned Sparrow in 1990 and Black-throated Sparrow has been found here as well. At 4.1 miles from the orange gate, look for a road that goes off to the east. This will take you to Aspen Pond. The road is rough but this location has produced Virginia Warbler. There is a good aspen grove that might produce a Red-naped Sapsucker or other woodpeckers. Near the top, check the hummingbirds for the odd Broad-tailed Hummer and keep an eye out for species like Chukar, Rock Wren, Lazuli Bunting, Green-tailed Towhee, Fox Sparrow, and Lewis's Woodpecker.

Habitat and Birds: This unique small reservoir is the headwaters of the East Branch of the Lost River. It is surrounded by a mix of western juniper, mountain mahogany, bitter brush and ponderosa pine. This is a great place to camp and well worth a early summer trip to bird. The summer birds of this area are Green tailed Towhee, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Lewis's Woodpecker, Ash-throated Flycatcher, Western Tanager, Gray Flycatcher, Pinyon Jay, and great shorebirds starting in mid July through late August. In the evening listen for Flammulated Owls and Northern Pygmy-Owls. Watch out for the mosquitoes after mid May. There are ticks here in spring so beware.
