Mount Emily, Mountain in Curry County, Oregon, US

Mount Emily is a mountain in the Klamath Mountains of southern Curry County, Oregon, about 5 miles (8 km) from the Pacific Ocean and the California state line near Brookings. Its summit area holds the Wheeler Ridge Japanese Bombing Site, marked by two wooden information boards and a short dark brown wooden post on a light gray base between two large tree trunks. The surrounding forest is old-growth coast redwood and common Douglas fir.

On September 9, 1942, the Japanese submarine I-25 launched a Yokosuka E14Y seaplane piloted by Nobuo Fujita, who dropped an incendiary bomb on Mount Emily in an attempt to start a forest fire. This was the first enemy air attack on the continental United States. The bombing site was rediscovered in 1972 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in July 2006 as the Wheeler Ridge Japanese Bombing Site.

The site is marked by two wooden information boards and a short dark wooden post on a grey base between two trunks; Nobuo Fujita planted a giant sequoia seedling here in 1992 as a peace tree. Since its rediscovery the bombing site has become a symbol of reconciliation between American and Japanese Pacific War veterans.

Weather near Mount Emily can shift quickly because of its proximity to the coast, with fog or rain often rolling in without much warning. Visiting on a clear day gives the best views from the upper slopes, and sturdy shoes are a good idea for the uneven terrain.

The National Register listing covers the Wheeler Ridge Japanese Bombing Site, not the summit: a spot on a southern spur at about 505 m where Nobuo Fujita's incendiary bomb fell on 9 September 1942. The drop site was forgotten after the war and only rediscovered on 10 August 1972 by a search team led by photo journalist Bert Webber. In 1992 Fujita planted a giant sequoia seedling there as a peace tree.
