Although these expenditures will be
small in comparison to the total
amount necessary to complete the
park highway to Copper Mountain,
still it will enable the Park Transpor
tation company to render a more effi
cient and comfortable service to the
tourists,- than has been the case in the
past. The opportunity will now be
given to those park visitors who have
_ only sufficient time for a short so
journ, to travel into one of the most
J scenic and finest wild life sections of
i the park. At the head of Savage riv
i er, there roam large herds of caribou,
i the hills by which one passes are the
i grazing grounds for inumerable bands
i of sheep and last but not least, the
i grizzly bears make their home among
■ the blueberry bushes in this locality.
■ On one occasion during last summer
E a tourist viewed with awe and won
■ der nine enormous .specimens of the
■ largest of canivorous beasts in the
J world.
i The construction of a few small
I bridges and a general grading of the
I rough spots will allow thorough-brace
I stage coaches or light automobiles to
a make rapid yet comfortable trips at
■ very reasonable charges. In other
■ words, the trip up Savage river will
” now become one of the most attract
ive pastimes of the visitors’ stay in
the park.
During the fiscal years 1922 to 1927,
inclusive, not taking into considera
tion this year’s expenditures, the fol
lowing amounts of money have been
spent on the park highway:
National Park Service.$130,020.00
Alaska Road Commission.... 15,865.46
Territory of Alaska . 732.50
Contributions .—.—-. 700.00
Total ....$147,318.21
The total cost of reconnaisance,
_ final location of 3614 miles of road,
clearing and grubbing miles, grading,
culverts and bridges on 19 miles, suf
ficient surfacing on 19 miles for light
automobile traffic in wet weather and
the cost of freighting supplies on hand
an average distance of 13 miles over
the snow derates a figure of $128,310.
The cost of construction of cabins, of
fice buildings, warehouse and trail
tents with equipment, is represented
by the blaance of $19,008.21.
Carl Johnson, supervisor, of the
Alaska Road Commission at Talkeet
na arrived at McKinley Park on the
first of the month to prepare for his
road force, which will arrive in a few
days. He will straightway proceed to
Sanctuary river and compleet the
"crib” structure on the eastern bank
of that bridge. High water last year
had a very destructive effect upon the
approach to this bridge and substan
tial protective measures are necessary
to insure its stability in the future.
Mr. Johnson will have about eight to
ten men with him and will use horses
and bob-sleds until the disappearance
of snow will allow the motor trucks
and "cats” to operate.
It is assumed that the regular road
construction and maintennace crews
will not begin work until some time
during the middle of April.
