Under the title of “Mining in Alaska”
the following is taken from the report
of the United States Geological Survey.
“During the summer of 19U consider- |
able local excitement was caused by I
the discovery of anriferous gravels in
the region adjacent to the upper Mata
nuska hasin. As a consequece, T»> to
100 prospectors were attracted to this
region. Placer goid was found on Al- ;
bert creek, a branch of t rooked creek,
tributary to the Nelchitm river. Al
bert creek can be reached fiom tide* j
water at Knik by a journey of about 110
miles. There is a fairly good trail as
far as Chiekaloon, 00 miles from tide
water, and live entire route affords no j
obstacles for a pack train. Albert!
creek is probably about TO miles from
Copper Center Though this route
has not been surveyed, it has been
traversed by horses and is said to offer
no serious difficulties/’
It will be seen from that report that
Knik is the most feasible route to the
Nelchina. To reach Knik one must go
via Seawrd over a splendid trail, thence
through the Susitna valley for a dist- j
ance of only 110 miles to the diggings. J
When reaching Knik the prospector
can seenre his outfit and have it taken
as far as Chikaloon free of charge, as
Jack Dalton has kindly agreed to do. ;
This will save the prospectors a great !
deal of money and hard work. Seward j
is the gateway to the new Eldorado.

animals of the Andes is planned by
