Encyclopedia > Bly, Oregon

Bly is an unincorporated community in Klamath County, Oregon, about 44 miles east of Klamath Falls. The name comes from the Klamath word p'lai, meaning "up" or "high"; according to Lewis MacArthur's Oregon Geographic Names it means the village located up the Sprague River.


Bly attracted attention beyond the immediate neighborhood when Earnest James Ujaama was indicted and arrested for, in part, conspiring to set up a training camp for terrorists between October and December of 1999 on a ranch near Bly. This indictment claims Ujaama was a follower of Abu Hamza al-Masri, and had ties to al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
