Bogus Creek
Bogus Creek has water the year round and goes through a rather open, rolling country. Several ranches use its water for irrigation. It heads up in the Bogus Mountains, where the snow fall is quite heavy, and empties into the Klamath River.
In the early days Bogus Creek was a good stream for fish.
Steelhead, mountain trout and salmon, could be caught at different times of the year. It has been a score of years and more, since
I have taken a fish from Bogus Creek.
I believe that the stream and area were named Bogus through someone having bogus money, but I do not remember anyone ever tellĀ­ ing me just why the name was given.
