MOUNT M'KINLEY
NATIONAL PARK
FROM PARK HEADQUARTERS
Mr. Robert Sheldon returned on
| the last train from a business trip
1 to Fairbanks. He brought back with
him a Dodge 14-passenger bus, of
the latest type, which will be used
for the transportation of park visit
I
ors.
Miss Agnes Schlosser recently ar
rived back at Savage Camp after a
winter’s sojourn in Akiak, on the
lower Kuskoquim River. She will
be employed bv the Transportation
i
iCo., and will be in charge of the cul
j inary department of all field trips,
| camping and hunting parties.
I The Alaska Travelgraph for June,
I
| published by the Alaska Steamship
Company, was received in the last
mail from the South. This month’s
isue is devoted largly to Wrangell,
and as has been the case in former
issues, a large photograph is shown,
this time of Wrangell.
Construction of the park highway
is being aggressively pushed forward
to Igloo Creek. This point being
the objective for the work planned
for the present fiscal year. The
moss overburden is now being re
moved and uncovered ground thaw
ing out; this will permit the “cats”
and graders to work.
The park wild life are very abund
ant and tame. Caribou, foxes of all
species and mountain sheep besport
themselves on the open lowlands to
the great satisfaction of the photo
graphers—'both professional and am
ateur. Innumerable bands of sheep
have been crossing the highway on
their summer’s journey from the
northern range to the main Alaska
range. Tame, why it has been nec
essary for the Transportation Com
pany’s chauffers to “toot” their horns
when travelling back and forth,,
otherwise they might be apprehended
by National Park officials for killing
wild life.
During the last seven davsf un
comparable Alaskan summer weather
has been experienced by the park
visitors. Light “April” showers have
prevailed occasionally for short per
iods, with just enough rain to wash
the trees foliage and lay the dust on
the park highway and give that im
petus to the flowers which are now
blooming in great profusion. Alpine
lupines, harebells, parnassia, wild
roses and “Hudson Bay” tea are all
in their glory and give our visitors
from the Outside cities, a concrete
argument against the erroneous im
pression of this “land of ice and
snow.”
The road maintainance crew which
has been located at Mile ti. bringing
that point of the park roa.l up to
scratch, moved to camp at Mile 12
a few days ago. From this point,
wark will commence on the coach
road to the head of Savage River.
Inasmuch as there is a large profu
sion of sheep, caribou and fox in
that vicinity, the drive of eight miles
is vastly appreciated by all who take
it. The new road will greatly im
prove travel conditions and will al
low the visitor to make the trip far
quicker and with more comfort.
