Their early career was boosted when they were named the official photographers for Portland?s Lewis and Clark Exposition in 1905. The brothers were in business together until Oscar died of accidental drowning in late 1905. After Oscar?s death, Fred became a premier photographer of mountain landscapes, and one of the most successful commercial photographers in the country during the first decades of the twentieth century. Kiser?s photographs of Crater Lake helped publicize the lake, and his work photographing northwestern Montana contributed to the creation of Glacier National Park. Additionally, Kiser worked as a photographer for the Great Northern Railway and took photos of the construction of the Columbia River Highway in the years prior to World War I. After the War, Kiser started the Scenic America Company to sell his colorized prints using the slogan ?See America First.? This may have been the first use of that now famous slogan. Under this company name, he sold prints and developed film at Crater Lake throughout the 1920s. He later moved to the Los Angeles area, where he died in 1955.The Oregon Caves National Monument is located in the southwest corner of Oregon, twenty miles east of Cave Junction, in Josephine County. In 1874, Elijah J. Davidson, a prospector and hunter, came upon the cave during a hunting trip in the Siskiyou Mountains. Previously unknown by the area's white settlers, the cave quickly captured the curiosity of many individuals interested not only in exploration of the cave, but also in its potential commercial development. In 1885, Walter Burch and Homer Harkness inititated a plan of development which was to include trail access to the "Limestone Caves," cave tours, and accommodations. After dropping their claim in 1887, another attempt at promotion was made by the Oregon Cave Improvement Company (1894), but this venture failed. Through the efforts of Joaquin Miller and Chandler B. Watson, the Oregon Caves National Monument was dedicated by President Taft on July 12, 1909. Under the guidance of Dick Rowley, ranger-in-charge at the monument, a program of trails, access roads, and accommodations was again initiated. The Oregon Caves Highway opened in 1923, bringing an estimated 10,000 visitors to the monument during its first year of operation. In 1924, the Oregon Caves Resort Company began operating concessions for the National Park Service and oversaw the management of two rustic hostelries - the Chalet (ca. 1923) and the newer Chateau (1934). In 1934, management of the Oregon Caves National Monument was transferred from the U.S. Forest Service to the National Park Service. In 1941, a new Chalet was built.…
