The Rogue River mail boats
1895

There was no road up the Rogue canyon, so the post office contracted boats to carry mail thirty-two miles upriver to Agness, one of the last places in America where mail still goes by boat. Passengers started riding along for something to do, and the run turned into an industry of shallow-draft jet boats.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
