2018 Autumn Leaf Presenter - Jared Pohll (Toledo, WA) - "The Beginning Years"

Just graduating out of high school, Jared took back a hobby he had since forgotten during most of his middle and high school years. Moving to Eugene, Oregon shortly after, the interest grew back during a short hike in the Oregon Cascades and seeing a train creep down the steep cliffs of Union Pacific's Cascade Line. His first presentation showing scenes of the continuous battle with trains along the 1.8% 42 mile long grade out of Oakridge, Oregon. Along with scenes continuing south to Klamath Falls and north to Junction City, Oregon.
