Jobe cites incident, resigns from County Auditor’s Office
LOU MARZELES EDITOR
Just weeks before the general election, candidate for Klickitat County Auditor Heather Jobe has resigned from her position there. Last week, Jobe stated, an incident occurred in the office that led to her stepping down. “I resigned,” Jobe said, “giving Brenda [Sorensen, incumbent Auditor] four weeks’ notice,” which included vacation time. “I needed to let
Brenda finish up her term on her own terms.”
Jobe said she was not free to disclose the details of what happened, and the Auditor’s Office is bound by personnel-matter confidentiality. Jobe added, “Change can be difficult for people. Brenda’s been doing this job for 46 years. I decided it was best to leave at this time, and I turned in my keys.”
Jobe added her departure two and a half months before the end
of the year neither detracts from her six years of experience in the office nor imparts experience to her opponent, JoAnne Chambers.
She emphasized that she was leaving the office, not the race. “If I’m elected, I will take the oath of office in January,” she said.
Jobe has acknowledged accepting a job with the City of Toppenish. She states the city is aware that her employment could be short-term pending the outcome of the election.
Ode to Autumn in Goldendale
TAYLER BRADLEY FOR THE SENTINEL
The seasons have changed here in Klickitat County and the festivities, weather, fields, and sports have also made the change. Holidays are coming in full swing, and all of our community members really get into it, making it such an enjoyable time.
We all love watching the leaves change color and feel the crisp coolness in the air that comes with our fall days. The days get a little shorter, and we start sitting in front of the fire sipping warm apple cider. Our toasty, cozy sweaters get pulled out of storage, and then all those favorite crock pot meals get put on the stove for a warm wholesome dinner. As for the fields that grew all of our favorite things, they get prepped for the winter months, the animals get moved, and their homes are prepped for the cold nights. It is really a great change to make after the wonderful summer season we all had.
The first of the holidays is Halloween, where we get to dress up and be whatever we want to be for the night. Kids trick-ortreat and get sacks full of candy for their sweet tooth. Goldendale holds their annual Trunk or Treat festivities right down Main Street. Glenwood also holds their Trunk or Treat and their carved pumpkin contest, and Trout Lake has Octoberfest. Throughout the county there are haunted houses and pumpkins galore. We get watch our favorite Halloween movies and TV shows, like “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.” This is such a fun holiday for all ages to partake in.
After that the next holiday we all love celebrating is Thanksgiving. This one is for all the food lovers out there. The huge variety of yummy casseroles, pies, and side dishes that all came from Grandma’s secret recipes and of course the big, fat, juicy turkey. We all gather and spend time together, watching the football game, cooking, talking about old memories, and of course creating new ones.
“Friends-giving” is a new tradition that many of us take part in, and it’s a great way to spend time with those that aren’t blood family but act like real family. This holiday is the one where we give thanks to everything we have in life, the people, the opportunities, and our community.
This the season for bazaars. All over the county each town holds multiple opportunities for the local business entrepreneurs to sell their homemade items within the community. The shoppers are thinking of holiday decorations and buying just the right gift for Christmas, which always comes faster than we think. These are the places where you find that unique gift for your best friend,
Narcan vending machine coming
AUDREY HILL FOR THE SENTINEL
Throughout the course of time, we have seen massive changes in the use of illicit substances and the war on drugs. During the ’60s it was marijuana, the ’70s and ’80s were the cocaine heyday, and the ’90s were marked by heroin. Due to the changes seen in drug use, hospitals and drug abuse resource centers have had to change the way they work with those struggling with substance abuse disorder.
Currently opioids such as heroin, cocaine, fentanyl, and oxycodone are the leading cause of overdoses in the United States, causing an estimated 75,500 deaths from April 2020 to April 2021. In Washington State the amount of overdose deaths is rising quickly, with an average of five deaths daily. Klickitat County has seen these issues firsthand, and the county offers many resources to help those struggling with substance abuse.
Klickitat Valley Health (KVH) has been working for years to help those struggling with sub-
stance abuse disorder. Since the increase in fentanyl use, KVH has chosen to help provide the community access to naloxone, also known as Narcan. Narcan is a lifesaving nasal spray that treats opioid overdose in an emergency situation; it can be administered to anyone and has no negative effects, even if the person has not taken opioids. It is a solution to overdose deaths without any negative effects. KVH is going to be implementing a Narcan vending machine that will give the community free access to Narcan. The vending machine will be guarded by a code that you can get access
to by going through a free Narcan administration course put on by KVH. KVH hopes to destigmatize Narcan and to provide the proper training to administer it. Penny Andress with KVH hopes, “It is in everybody’s first aid kit.” KVH believes that it is important to carry Narcan because it is not only for those struggling with substance abuse; it’s also potentially for anyone with opioid prescriptions.
“We’ve got a grandma who goes home with opioids because she’s broken her hip. She forgets that she’s taken a dose, and then you find grandma on the floor, what do

Letters from the community
We endorse him
Klickitat County Voters, We are voting for and giving our full endorsement to Garique Clifford for Klickitat County Sheriff. Garique and his family have lived here for decades. They care deeply about our county.
We are impressed by Garique’s experience and creden tials as a law enforcement officer. Garique is a highly decorated leader who has won several service awards for going above and beyond the call of duty. On top of that, he’s just a really nice guy. He is a personable and profes sional law enforcement officer, focused on the safety of all of our citizens.
Garique will make sure officers get the training and equipment they need to be effective, safe, and do their work responsibly and safely.
We are the proud parents of a local law enforcement officer, so this issue is personal for us. Ensuring that offic ers have all the training and equipment they need to do their job safely is critical. It’s how you retain great offic ers who want to stay here and serve our in communities.
Providing community safety through professional law enforcement is his number one priority. We hope you will join us in voting for Garique Clifford as our next Klickitat County Sheriff!
Dave and Beth Sauter Lyle
Haven’t we learned from recent mandates, edicts, or declarations, that while they bear the appearance, or color of laws, they are meaningless and unenforceable according to the U.S. Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, and any statue, to be valid, must be in agreement.
There are 3,080 counties in the United States with fewer than 200 fortunate enough to boast Constitutional sher iffs.
For those who want a nice guy, it seems Clifford might be your man. For those who appreciate a rugged, sea soned, ethical lawman of integrity, and five decades of protecting your rights, then isn’t a vote for Sheriff Bob Songer your better choice?
Longer for Bob Songer!
Best choice for division
Toni Reita Goldendale
Would you like to further divide the citizens of Klickitat County? If so, vote for Bob Songer.
team across the street. Americans are no longer safe. Random shootings are commonplace. Violent criminals are released back onto the streets within hours of arrest. Many don’t get arrested because there are not enough police left to do the job. Police are vilified, disrespected, and attacked. Twelve officers were murdered this week alone. Some of them were lured and executed. How can this happen in the USA? Democrat policies. Surely, this is not what you want.
We are on the brink of nuclear war with Russia. I never thought I would utter those words. President Biden, his cabinet, nearly every Democrat in the House and Senate, and half of Republicans are talking about firing nuclear weapons at Putin. Some say we should fire first! They want this; they are war mongers. They foolishly think we can have a “limited” nuclear war. With today’s weapons there is no such thing. These people are acting insane, and they must be voted out now. We are on the verge of nuclear war because the despots of the world do not fear or respect our weak, feeble-minded president. They see what “woke” Democrat policies produce and they mock us. When the US is weak, the whole world is in danger.
The only rational choice
In August I moved from Hawaii because of conditions created by radical left-wing politics. Arriving home in Klickitat County, I find a significant presence of the same destructive, divisive ideology. This is clearly dem onstrated by the obsessive anti-Sheriff Songer campaign. Trump Derangement Syndrome all over again? Appar ently, to attract this wrath Sheriff Songer has rather forcefully upheld positions which just a few short years ago were considered normal and mainstream. President Clinton’s platform of the 1990s would now be considered right wing and racist by the radical left.
We have a sheriff with decades of success in upper law enforcement management, highly educated, and dedicated to the protection of our property, lives, and liberty. He is endorsed by 18 other sheriffs, numerous current and past Republican office holders, the County Republican Party, and many other organizations and individuals who sim ply want an exemplary sheriff to remain in office.
Unless you have the Songer obsession syndrome, Garique Clifford with a short time as a patrol Sargent and no higher education is not a suitable replacement.
Garique Clifford’s administrative credentials are pathetically inadequate.
Sheriff Songer’s credentials are beyond reproach.
Sheriff Songer is the only rational choice.
Why doesn’t he know?
Matt West Centerville
Candidate Clifford recently claimed he would allow the “courts” to rule on whether any “law” violated the Con stitution or not. Yet his sworn oath of office is to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
Doesn’t it trouble you that as a veteran deputy he could not be familiar with: “Where rights secured by the Consti tution are involved, there can be no rule-making or legis lation which would abrogate them.” –Miranda v. Arizona. And “A law repugnant to the Constitution is void.” Chief Supreme Court Justice Marshall.

Burn-out has got to go
The Festival of Wheels gave it another try this year. It seems the attendance has dwindled to much lower levels than when the event was new, 10 years ago. There are a lot of competing car shows this time of year, so it doesn’t surprise me .
As an elected official, he promotes his extremist ideas and conspiracy theories on media like Alex Jones’s Infowars, has invited people into our county like violent far-right activist Joey Gibson of Patriot Prayer, Constitu tional Amendment deniers like KrisAnne Hall (associa tions with the Oath Keepers and LOS neo- Confererate group), and Sheriff Mack, previous board member of the Oath Keepers and president of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peach Officers Association (an organization which Songer belongs to that lets Sheriffs enforce their own interpretation of the Constitution). He has continually put down “Democrats,” “liberals,” and even just people from White Salmon or the “west side” of the county on his radio show, while doxing anyone who questions him or writes a letter like this one. He claims he is sheriff for everyone because he was “protecting” the BLM protesters. He has mentioned many times that he thinks BLM is a terrorist organization. I was at one of those protests (of mostly older women) and he did nothing to stop the coal rollers, the people who were getting up in our faces without masks at the height of COVID, and the intimidating armed citizens. We all know why he was there.
This year Goldendale Motor sports Association and ABATE brought back the burn-out, which was tried several times in the past with questionable benefits to the town. This year someone had the brilliant idea to use the old skate board park as a place to stage the return of the burnout. It was held on the concrete slab, a tempting medium for anyone inclined to bum rubber. Rednecks of many degrees, punk kids or maybe the little old lady from Pasadena.
any group that wants to burn-out. There are places in the county where it could be held, just not in the city please. I hate toxic smoke, and you should too.
My Democrat neighbor, please take a hard, honest look at your party’s platform. Own up to what the people you put in office are doing. The extreme of the extreme have taken control of your party. Moderates no longer have power. I cannot believe you agree with their frightening agenda for America. I believe you love our country. Won’t you please help save America? Republicans are far from perfect, but they are our only hope for turning us away from the cliff. We are nearing the point of no return. Will you not choose love of country over loyalty to party?
On Sept 4 I will be asking the mayor and his administration to make an ordinance forbidding anyone from reckless unsafe burn outs in any ones neighborhood or any street in the Goldendale city limits. I would appreciate some support from like-minded citizens at the council meeting. Let them know how you feel.
Ken McKune Goldendale C
He is not the sheriff for the whole county. If you want to vote for someone who spends his time on his own par tisan “fame “agenda, vote for Songer. Otherwise, there is another Republican choice. Garique Clifford for Klickitat County Sheriff.
Is this really what you want?
I personally was left with a bad taste in my mouth and lungs. Even though I made it a point to stay away from the burn-out and was at my home where I thought I would escape the noise and smoke, when the toxic cloud rose from the park and drifted over the Lit tle Klickitat River Park (the swimming pool) on to the kids and families at the pool and on to me while I was sitting on my property. We were contaminated by the toxins in the smoke, and my eyes and throat were imitated, and my lungs filled with carbon monoxide and other cancer causing toxic compounds for three hours.

tacted by some-one higher up. That person has not contacted me after more than a week so I am following through on what I told the bank contacts I was going to do—write a letter to the editor to be sure local folks are aware of how Columbia Bank is choosing to deal with its account holders.
My concern is that a comment as broad as this opens the door for abuse. I have had no difficul ties with our local branch and am sorry that the headquarters has decided to take such a hard line. It ap-pears I will need to look for a bank that does not behave in this manner.
Cheri Harris Goldendale
I am a dues-paying Klickitat County Democrat living at the west end of the county, and I resent being character ized as radical or leftist by the author of a letter sent to the Columbia Gorge News (“Radical Democrats,” October 12).
The Klickitat Democrats I know, including the leadership, do not advocate defunding the police, as the letter states, nor are they affiliated with radical groups. The author, Mike Goodpaster from Goldendale, should reveal where he got the information and identify onto whom he is cast ing aspersions.

Becky Miles White Salmon
I am terribly concerned about the state of our nation. I love the United States of America, and I believe you do, too. Never before have I been so heartbroken, angry, and afraid of the direction we are headed at breakneck speed. The powers in D.C. took the wheel, made a hard left turn, and pointed us straight at a cliff on Inauguration Day 2021. Only the elites have parachutes; they will be fine, but the rest of us are headed for destruction, and they don’t care.
I recently received an updated “Terms for Business and Deposit Account Agreement” from Columbia Bank. I am not in the habit of reading the fine print but for some reason this time I did. I came across an “added” line that I found very concerning. Again, this line is both for personal and business accounts. It reads: “We may refuse to open and account and may close your account at any time for any reason or for no reason at all.”
The top two candidates for Klickitat County Sheriff pre fer the Republican party according to the Voters’ Pam phlet we received in the mail. I will vote for Garique Clif ford because he has the experience and temperament to be an excellent sheriff for all of us.

My Democrat neighbor, please allow me to share with you some reasons why I am so alarmed for our beloved homeland.
Skyrocketing prices and shortages. Millions of Ameri cans are having to choose between eating, fueling their vehicles, and paying their bills. Store shelves are less full each month. Walmart.com no longer ships many staple items due to short supply. Truckers are quitting because they cannot afford fuel and cannot obtain parts. The sup ply chain is broken from one end to the other. In southwest states, where much of our food is grown, water is being cut off from farms and diverted to wilderness areas. In the midst of severe drought and 50% crop failures, the federal government is paying farmers not to plant. Fertilizer use is now limited to conform to new green energy policies, as in Europe. Food animals are being killed prematurely because farmers are not able to feed them. The US is running out of food. To add insult to injury, President Biden shames the U.S. by begging our enemies to sell us fossil fuels when more than enough is readily available beneath our feet but is forbidden to us. I could go on and on. Every one of these catastrophic breakdowns, shortages, and inflationary price increases are the direct result of Democrat policies. Dear neighbor, is this what you voted for? I assume not.
Increasing violent crime. Defund the police, open bor ders, cashless bail, allowing the homeless to do what ever they want—all are destructive Democrat policies. Across America, innocent people are being viciously attacked by repeat offenders. Gangs, looters, left-wing “protestors,” and drug-addicted homeless people terror ize, destroy, rob, injure and kill, free of consequences. We may feel safe here in Klickitat County, but have you been to Portland or Vancouver lately? The last time I exited a Vancouver discount store, there was a SWAT.
Bob Songer: Chief Civil and Chief Criminal Deputy, Undersheriff in Clark County supervising 281 employees, $14,000,000 budget. Chief of Police, Elko, Nevada. Fifty-two employees, $3,200,000 budget
Klickitat County Sheriff. Forty employees, $5,000,000 budget. Washington and Nevada police academies. FBI three-month national academy. BA in Justice. Masters in Criminal Justice. Over 80 law enforcement trainings. Dozens of service awards for outstanding performance, including 2022 Law Enforcement Officer of the year from Washington State Grange and County Farm Bureau.
As Klickitat County Sheriff, his management has opti mized response time and patrol coverage and provided productive, effective financial management. He restored morale, interagency coordination, and jail regulatory compliance. He built an aggressive anti-crime, anti-drug program. Established the K9 unit and increased the num ber of posse volunteers to 150-plus, giving the equivalent of $500,000 worth of time to the county every year.
Garique Clifford: Officer since 2003 with four years’ entry level supervisory position of sergeant in small department. Typical training. (Absent is training he criti cizes Klickitat County Sheriff’s Office for not having.)
Three four-day FBI seminars for first line supervisors and development. Several awards for performance. Search and Rescue supervisor. No financial or personnel manage ment. No degree beyond high school. In the private sector, Mr. Clifford’s resume would not qualify for an interview. Clifford’s voters come from those supporting the Party of Soft on Crime and Weak on Rights.
Sheriff Songer’s platform is Hard on Crime and Strong on Rights. The only realistic choice is Sheriff Songer.

Volleyball, cross country, and Halloween events
Last Thursday, October 13, the Klickwood high school volleyball team had their last home game in Klickitat against a very tough Dufur team. It took four hard, close games, but Klickwood won. Those of us there to support our Klickwood girls were on the edge of our seats every game. They fi nished the regular season games in Spray last Saturday, then played in what is called the Play-In last Tuesday. I’ll share results next week. The Big Sky League tournament is this Saturday, October 22. Check with Mrs. Troh or Coach
Hoctor at the school for tournament location and time.
Let’s hope for a great turnout of fans from Glenwood and Klickitat to support our team.
The Little Klickwood Middle School Volleyball team had a game in Bickleton on Monday and finishes their season with a tournament on their Klickitat home court on Thursday, October 20.

Line-up of flat tires
As many as eight cars were lined up roadside early Tuesday morning last week near McDonalds and River’s Edge intersection with fl at tires, some with both front and back…on the driver’s side. ODOT was on hand with lights flashing everywhere. Two cars with fl ats were either still there or from separate episodes later that afternoon. As cautious as my daughter was after seeing this, she fell victim with one of her tires slashed two ways and had to rely on Les Schwab to come to the rescue. Later, ODOT posted this statement: “Oregon Dept of Transportation and Oregon State Police are aware of the problem with the bolts in the road plates causing flat tires on the HWY 197 bridge at The Dalles and are working on it now.”
Many Dallesport residents are reporting the howl of coyotes from a pack roaming the area and putting small pets at risk. The best advisory for this problem is to not leave food out, and at this time do not allow pets to roam outside without supervision.
One resident reported that they could hear a dog being attacked and could do nothing about it. Another said the coyotes were no longer afraid of flashing lights, loud bangs, or screams.
Other residents are reporting that the extermination of the animals will lead to an influx of unwanted gophers, rats, and varmints that they normally feast on—so what is the answer?
I guess we will have to leave it to the “powers that be” and go from there.
As our weather is going into autumn, we would think it would be getting colder, but it seems the Climate Prediction Center and Columbia Climate School have predicted there is a “La Nina” winter warning with climates across the United States to be wet and cold in the lower California to Florida range and warm and dry in the upper California to the Alaska range, which is us. That would make it a third year in a row of less than normal precipi-
tation and drier summers. All in all, not good. As much as I dislike snow, I appreciate it up in the high country and for it to melt very slowly to get our water levels back to normal.
This brings us to the extension of our local Burn Ban, which has been extended through October 31. No outdoor burning of any kind. We had two fi res last week alone. One was up along the Snowden /Appleton area where a fi re sprang from a vehicle to a nearby tree. It was knocked down within a couple of hours by our dedicated firefighters and fi rst responders from both Appleton and Lyle. The other blaze was a truck and vehicle accident on Highway 14 that fired out of control into the nearby roadside and had to be extinguished. We have awesome volunteers who are there for us when the call comes in.
Do you feel rather ghoulish? Want to get the kids all dressed in costumes that could win a prize? The OLESS are sponsoring a Trunk or Treat Night at the Lyle Activity Center on October 31, starting at 5 p.m. There will be costume prizes for kids and even a contest for the best trunk. So gussy up your trunk full of goodies and costumes for the kids to participate in a night made for children. Oh, the good old days. We children of bygone days had to go door to door, all over town, come rain or not. Now the kids have it made. Everyone is coming to them in one place. I think I like my way better. At least we wore off some of the energy that the candy provided. In my day you got oranges, apples, homemade cookies, fudge, popcorn balls—and real candy bars. Not these penny candy duds. But the changing times have to be met and dealt with to create different fun for the children.

FFA taco feed raises money to attend nationals
BRAYDON HILL GMS FFA REPORTER
On October 10, Goldendale FFA held a taco feed and a silent auction at the Goldendale American Legion to raise money for their upcoming FFA National Convention. The chapter sold more than 90 meals and more than 40 donated auction items.
GMS FFA President Rydell Myers said, “It was great to see so many people
that came out and supported our FFA members. Every bit of support helps as we have 19 members that competed in the National Chapter Award contest and will be accepting their award in Indianapolis, Indiana.”
Goldendale FFA would like to thank the community members for coming and supporting their members, those who donated auction items, and the American Legion volunteers for helping run the dinner.
evening for the kids and their parents, put on by the Glenwood High School Associated Student Body. It’s bound to be a fun, exciting evening that will lead up to the Trunk or Treat on Halloween night in downtown Glenwood.
The Glenwood Women’s Club and Glenwood Grange, Glenwood General Store, the Hallenbecks, and the Glenwood Volunteer Fire Department are teaming up to make Trunk or Treat a fun and safe event for our community kids and their families. Trunk or Treat is scheduled to take place between 4 p.m. and 6
p.m. along Main Street. We know some parents don’t get home from work until a little later, so we’ll “linger” uptown a bit for those who can’t make it earlier.
We’re very happy to report that the Glenwood Station restaurant is now back up and running, after a shutdown for equipment repairs. The restaurant hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday. We are fortunate in our small town to have two good choices for either dine in or take out when we don’t feel like cooking.

We Stand With Sheriff Bob Songer!
The liberals who support Garique Clifford like to call people names. They try to label us as racists, white supremacists, and MAGA extrem ists because we support Sheriff Bob Songer. They are trying to paint Bob Songer as a rogue sheriff who gets his orders from radical groups outside of Klickitat County. Of course, as most of the people in our community already know, nothing could be further from the truth!

He doesn’t back down when the state oversteps their authority and he will stand strong to defend your rights whether you vote for him or not. Whenever you hear the trash talk going on, just remember that the majority of people still Stand With Sheriff Bob Songer!

Lundin also highlighted a Klickitat County fi lm series project that is nearing completion. “Central Klickitat County has so many things to offer. Our goal is to distribute these films and share the features and amenities that make this area the perfect weekend getaway.”
More recently, the Chamber of Commerce partnered with the City of Goldendale to apply for a small business innovation grant. There were two main focuses for the application, includ-

KVH not only offers Narcan to save the lives of those struggling; they also have a program that began in 2019 to give buprenorphine to patients who have opioid abuse disorder.

The Washington Outdoors Report: The Bison Range
John Kruse
For The SenTinel
When you think of places in America where you can see big wild animals up close, you tend to think of Yellowstone, Grand Teton, or Glacier National Park, but there is a place much closer than that for most Washing tonians that offers worldclass wildlife viewing with out the crowds. That place is the Bison Range, located less than an hour’s drive west of St. Regis in western Montana.
The range is located on the Flathead Indian Reser vation, where tribal mem bers brought several buffalo calves in the late 1800s as bison populations plummeted towards extinction due to excessive hunting. In 1908 the U.S. Government established the National Bison Range, covering 18,766 acres, and populated it with bison from the herd established by tribal members in the area.
The Bison Range was owned and operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Ser vice until 2020, when the Range and its management was returned to the Confeder ated Salish & Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Reservation. The one stipulation was that the Bison Range remain open for public visitation.
Today, the Bison Range experience is much like it was in years past. Entering the Range from the west, your first stop is the Visitor Center where you will be greeted by a fully taxidermized bison, along with a number of inter pretive displays detailing the history of the Bison Range.
At the Visitor Center you purchase a pass to enter the
range. A daily pass is $10, and an annual pass is only $20. You can also purchase a tribal fishing permit here if you want one.
Leaving the Visitor Center, you have two roads you can travel. The first is the Buffalo Prairie Drive, which is open year-round (weather per mitting). You’ll follow Mis sion Creek, driving towards the eastern end of the Bison Range. I’ve driven this route on two visits and have seen not only lots of bison up close, but also elk, white-tailed deer, pronghorn, bighorn sheep, and even a badger, as well as numerous raptors rang ing from northern harriers to red-tailed hawks and even a golden eagle. In fact, there are over 210 species of birds that can be seen at the Bison Range, making it not only a great place to see big game, but also a birder’s paradise.
The other route available to drive is the Red Sleep Drive, which takes you up to a for ested hilltop that is part of the Mission Mountain Range. This road eventually dips back down, rejoining the Buf falo Prairie Drive at the east end of the Bison Range. Plan on taking at least two hours to travel the Red Sleep Drive and an hour to go to the end of the Buffalo Prairie Drive and back.
In addition to the animals I saw, Stephanie Gillen, the information and education program manager at the Bison Range, says there are also black bears, mountain lions, mule deer, and a vari ety of small game that live on the range along with the occasional passing grizzly bear and even a wolverine that has been seen here.
All of the drives take place on dirt roads, and vehicles over 30 feet are not allowed on them. While traveling through the Bison Range, you are asked to stay in your vehi cle or next to it. This is for your safety as well as for the safety of the animals that live here. They are used to see ing cars but will be spooked by the approach of people which could trigger a “fight or flight” reaction.
There are two places you can leave your vehicle and stretch your legs. Prior to entering the Visitor Center, there is an expansive day-use area with a big picnic area and a couple of short inter pretive trails, one of them circling a pond and the other going along Mission Creek which includes an area for disabled fishing access. There is also another foot path on Mission Creek outside the day use area available for anglers too. Gillen says anglers who fish here have a very good chance of catching trout.
Whether you hike or fish, be aware that elk frequent these wooded areas along Mission Creek and the big animals sometimes don’t take kindly to the presence of humans. After all, the elk, the bison, and the other animals are all wild and deserve your respect and distance. Having said that, the Bison Range offers an incredible oppor tunity to view or photograph wildlife up close without the traffic jams or crowds found at some of our national parks.
The Bison Range is open seven days a week during the summer months and the Visitor Center is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The hours of operation will soon be chang
ing to a new winter schedule. You can find out more about that through the Bison Range Facebook Page (CSKT Bison
Range) or through their web site at https://bisonrange. org/bison-range-informa tion-hours-of-operation/.

Beavers
One incredible animal that doesn’t get talked about very often is the beaver. Beavers are the second largest known rodent. They are the largest rodent to live in North America. The only rodent known to be larger is the capybara that lives in South America. An adult female beaver can be over three feet long and weigh 55 pounds. That is the size of the average six to seven year old human. On top of that a beaver can live 20 years or longer.
The beaver is built to live in water. Its fur is thick and has an oily undercoat that helps it stay warm and to dry off quickly. A beaver doesn’t have good eyesight but it has a built in set of underwater goggles. There is a thin membrane like a second eyelid that it uses to keep the eyes open underwater. Beavers also have webbed back feet that help it paddle through the water and they use their thick flat tail to steer. With all this combined power a beaver can swim at speeds of five miles per hour. On top of all that, this aquatic mammal has valves in its ears and nose. These valves when they dive underwater to keep the water out.
Beavers are mammals. A mammal is an animal that has hair, a vertebra and is fed milk made by the mother’s mammary glands. The babies of beavers are called kits. The kits stay with their parents for up to two years. Did you know that a baby beaver can swim by the time it is two to four days old? They are born with their eyes open and all their teeth, and begin eating bark before they can even swim. They are even born with all their hair. Babies don’t go outside for quite a while though because they are tiny when they are born.
Beavers are known as nature’s builders or engineers. Other than humans they are one of the only animals that can shape their ecosystem and environment to meet their needs. Beavers are great builders. They need a wet environment with plenty of water to live. They will create ponds by building dams out of trees they have cut down. They stack the branches along with rocks and mud to form the dam. Then off to the side they will build their home. A beaver home is called a lodge. A lodge is a rounded structure made by stacking and weaving together sticks and twigs and other plants. Most lodges are around eight feet wide and 3 feet tall and are two stories tall. The first level of the lodge is in the water and the living room is above water and dry. Most lodges have two entrances just in case of an emergency.
If you ever see a beaver up close you may have the urge to tell it to brush its teeth. Don’t bother. Beaver teeth are orange, not dirty. This is because beavers need very strong teeth. Their teeth contain the mineral iron. Iron helps the teeth be strong enough to cut down trees but the iron makes the teeth look a rusty orange. Another amazing fact is their teeth never stop growing. Fun fact beavers sharpen their own teeth every time they chew something. The back of the teeth are made of softer material than the front so every time they chew on a hard substance it wears away the back of the tooth making the front very sharp.

Timberwolf Volleyball takes down Granger in 5
It was a very busy week for GHS Volleyball, with the team playing a total of 18 sets in five days. Starting with a quick and easy match at White Swan on Tuesday, the Timberwolves set their sights on the rematch with the second place Granger Spartans. A win would give the girls complete control of the EWAC West League Championship and a first place seed in the upcoming district tournament.
A great crowd was on hand to cheer on the girls, and it was quite a battle. Golden dale came out strong, win ning the first set with both Taryn Rising and Brook Blain putting the ball down for some entertaining kills.
Blain and setter Brylee Mul
rony connected for a perfect quick attack at set point to see the ball go straight down, much to the excitement of the Goldendale crowd.
In the second set, the Tim berwolves had some servereceive troubles and serving errors that gave the Spar tans points and momentum, enabling them to win the second set with ease at 25-14.
The third set was high lighted with great play from freshman Greta Gilliam, who passed the ball with solid accuracy so the Tim berwolves could run some offense. Rising, Blain, and Gwen Gilliam all had kills with the final point coming on a stuff block from Blain allowing the girls to secure the third set 25-18. The Spar
Timberwolf Football dominates White Swan
Audrey Hill For The SenTinel
Last Friday night the Tim berwolf Football team trav elled to White Swan to take on the White Swan Coyotes. With the Coyotes past record of one win and six loses, the Timberwolves were confi dent in their ability to con trol the game. Although White Swan is ranked fifth in district, they have man aged to score every game. The Timberwolves defense was determined to control the Cougars and keep them from scoring.
The game started out with the Timberwolves being quick on their feet and aggressive, with Seth Lucatero No.21 scoring a touchdown within the first three minutes. With their second possession, senior quarterback Kade Bomb erger No.8 ran a 20-yard quarterback keeper for the second touchdown of the game. Bomberger then threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Eli Golding No.10. Cameron Groves No.15 then made a 45-yard run, to be brought down by the Cou gars on the five-yard line. The ball was then run up the left into the endzone by Seth Lucatero No.21, bring ing the score up to 34-0. The pressure the Timberwolves
defense was putting on the Cougars caused a mas sive fumble resulting in a recovery and touchdown by Sophomore Malakai Maiava No.55. Bomberger then threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Groves. The Cougars tried to take him down, but he fought his way into the endzone. To end the game Evan Riley No.25 had an interception and ran down the field for the final touch down of the game, for an end score of 55-0.
The Timberwolves defense held strong keep ing the Cougars at a score of zero and a total of two first downs all game, being the first team to do so this sea son. Riker Hanning No.5 led the defense with eight tack les, followed by Sam Wilder No.59 with seven, Garrett Peters No.54 with five tack les and a sack, and Maiava with a sack, a fumble recov ery, and a touchdown. Riley ended the game with one interception for the touch down and Josh Smith with an interception as well.
The Timberwolves will take on the Cle Ellum War riors this Friday for the Homecoming game. Make sure to stop by and see the Homecoming Court and sup port the Timberwolves.
Soccer kicks it into gear
Audrey Hill For The SenTinel
Last week the girls Tim berwolf Soccer team trave led to take on the Mabton Viking and the Warden Cougars, with both teams presenting tough games. The Timberwolves were rid ing high from the previous weeks wins, but they knew they had to focus.
The game on Tuesday against the Mabton Vikings was evenly matched, with the Timberwolves and the Cougars battling it out for the win. The Timber wolves offense worked hard to maintain control and ended the game with 60% total possessions and 14 out of 17 shots on goal. Both defenses held strong keep ing the score at 0-0 to end the game with a penalty shootout, resulting in the Timberwolves’ Kelly Smith No.7, Avery Mell No.18, and Illiana Vega No.10 scoring three goals while Timber wolves goalkeeper Macken zie Dahl No.0 blocked three out of four attempted goals by the Cougars, to win the game.
The game on Saturday against the Warden Cou gars presented a tough challenge with the Tim berwolves being down two starting defenders with Aubrie Mcbride No.23 and Jordan Hinderliter No.13 filling in. The Timber
wolves defense was per sistent trying to keep the Cougars at zero. Even with the Timberwolves tough defense the Cougars scored their first goal just before halftime. Coming back from the half, the Timber wolves were determined to tie it up but the Cougars defense was too strong, resulting in the Cougars scoring another goal and putting the Timberwolves on edge. The Timberwolves were still determined, with Kelly Smith No. 7 making a pass to Jewlia Siglin No. 15 to score their first and only goal of the game, for an end score of 2-1.
After the changes in momentum the past few weeks, Head Coach Hector Sanchez is determined to maintain the Timberwolves place in Districts. “These girls have grit, heart, and the determination to make it further than they have before, and I’m just grateful to be a part of it,” he said.
This week the Timber wolves take on the White Swan Cougars for Senior Night on Tuesday, who they previously beat 15-0, and the Cle Ellum Warriors, who are ranked first in the league, giving the Timber wolves a chance to advance their standings.
tans were not to be denied and battled tough in the 4th set to win it 27-25, taking advantage of several errors from the Timberwolves.
Goldendale showed some grit and put the mistakes behind them, coming out strong in the 5th with a Blain stuff block and Gwen Gilliam kill to score the first two points in the final shortened set. Blain had two more kills to get the score to 7-3. The next rally was a long one, with Greta Gil liam making a huge defen sive dig right to the setter, allowing the ball to go out to Rising from Mulrony, who promptly put it away for an 8-3 lead. The Timberwolves went on to 14-7 lead on a stuff block and ensuing service
ace from Lydia Hanning. The Spartans hit the ball long at set point, and the Timberwolves watched it fly out of bounds to secure the final set 15-7. With the win in hand, the crowd joined the players for their traditional scream circle in the middle of the court.
Saturday brought a big trek over to the west side of the state to play in The Adna Invitational. Nine schools attended, with eight of them in the top 12 in RPI or the Coaches Polls of the 1B, 2B, and 1A classifications. This made for excellent competi tion all day, and the Tim berwolves battled the teams pretty closely. The girls fin ished 6 of 9 with a set record of 5-5. The long day and
lengthy travel was worth it, as the Timberwolves were shown what things they will need to improve to fin ish well at district and earn a berth to the state tourna ment in three weeks.
Blain, again, was a force at the net, with 12 stuff blocks and 20 kills. Rising powered 33 kills and served 94% on the day with 4 aces. Gwen Gilliam had 37 digs, 22 kills and 68 perfect passes. Mul rony continued to step up at the setter spot with 78 assists and hustled for 28 digs. Han ning served 93% with 5 aces and 8 kills. Lexi Molnar dug the ball 18 times and served two aces. Ada Garner was a highlight for the day with 16 kills and her ability to put the ball down will be very
helpful the rest of the way for the Timberwolves. Greta Gilliam continued to con tribute with 93% serving, 31 PP and 30 digs. All in all, it was a great day that will serve the Timberwolves well the rest of the season. Swing players Ella Riley, Maggie Gutierrez and Tessa Lar come all saw a bit of action and did a great job as sup port players throughout the day!
Tuesday, the girls were on the road to Mabton and will play long time 1A rival Zillah on Saturday for their Homecoming match. Hope to see many VB alumni out for the match with JV at 11 and Varsity to follow.

Gorge Youth Football Goldendale Team
TAyler BrAdley
For The SenTinel
We have been reading a lot about our high school football team, but it is also football season for the younger kids as well. The Gorge Youth Football league, put together through Klickitat County Parks and Rec, has a Goldendale team that consists of 14 kids ranging from third to sixth grade. The parents signed up their kids, and the fee to play went to jer seys and equipment needed for the kids to play. But this year they also got a sponsor from Sunrise Coffee to help with expenses. They started playing back in August and will finish up October 29.
The team is coached by Scott and Laurie Lyon, Corey Wehr, and Dennis Stetler. There are also a few other parents that come to practices and help things run smoothly. The kids get practices in a few times a week to prepare for the games they play on Saturdays. They play against other youth teams
in the area, White Salmon, The Dalles, Hood River, Ste venson, and Corbett. They are a lot bigger teams compared to Goldendale’s, but it makes the kids just a little tougher and stronger playing against them. These practices consist of run ning plays and formations but there are also a lot of funda mentals that go into it as well so these kids have a good base as they get older. “We teach the kids how to tackle as to not
injure themselves or another player, how to catch and run the ball and of course how to be competitive on the field,” says coach Laurie.
The team is pretty solid this year so far and have been playing well together, espe cially for the range of ages on the team. The bonds that the boys have off the field really help them when they are play ing together on the field. They know how to communicate
and work together. All of these things are strengths, but one of the best things the team does is “rallying whether we are winning or losing and picking each other's spirits up through each and every play,” Laurie says. These coaches have done a really good job of creating bonds to help instill success for their future. Helping these kids learn the game at an early age will not only help in the sport, but it also helps continue the success of sports at Goldendale High School. They are always looking for more volunteers to help these kids learn and begin developing their skills.
As their last weeks are com ing up, the kids are getting excited for their playoff games in the final week. Their regu lar season record will decide who the team will play and how the bracket will go. They have worked very hard over the past few weeks and each of them should be proud of what they have accomplished this season. Have fun and good luck the rest of the year, kids!
Cheers to the Cheer Squad
TAyler BrAdley For The SenTinel
All of our sports have been in full swing for a few weeks now, and there is one thing for sure—there will always be a squad there giving all their support. Those are the Goldendale Timberwolves cheerleaders. They are at every single home game, showing their love for the teams and their school.
Last year Kristen Dorais took over the head coaching job, and she has returned this year with lots of excite ment and enthusiasm. She has taken her experiences as a cheerleader herself and the things she learned from her coach and brought it to the table for her girls. For fall cheer, there are six total girls that came out. They are all very close, so it has been easy to build a team dynamic for trust and togetherness when they are performing. Kristen and the girls sometimes play games during practice to help continue this great relation ship.
With only six girls, there is only so much that they can do stunt-wise, but they are making it work and it has given them a chance to try a few new things. One of their new stunts on is the Baja Blast. What does that look like? Well, that will be a surprise for the home crowd once the girls have mastered it.
Speaking of mastering things, there are some new girls on the squad, and they are loving learning this new sport. Kristen makes sure that they are gaining con fidence and learning but knows, “They won’t hit a skill the first time they try it; it takes practice.” The squad has been getting lots of prac tice in, too, as they have been trying to make every home game for each sport. That is a lot of games but also an
opportunity to show what they can do.
At each of these games, the girls have been really trying to incorporate the crowd as much as possible. They do this with the classic cheers that everyone knows but have also done a few new things. At the home games, they have been doing themed nights such as pink out, cowboys, pur ple and gold, etc. They also give out a “spirit stick” to the fan of the night. All of these things encourage the crowd to stayed hyped and engaged to help each of the players feel the crowd’s excitement and support. They have gotten some great sponsors from the community. The girls worked hard to raise the money for cheer camp, and they have promoted those sponsors on their boxes that they use at the football games. The boxes are a new addition that have helped the girls see the field to know what cheer to do next
and to be closer to the crowd.
As the squad continues to grow and gain new skills, we will see some great new stunts and cheers from them. They also plan on doing a winter fundraiser but there will be more information
on that soon. As for now be sure to follow their Facebook page to stay up to date on each home game’s theme so you can dress for the occa sion and come to support the Wolves alongside this great group of cheerleaders.
