TKLIg OF BARROW TRIP
Deputy Marshal W E A Cremoi
gives the following information
and s ory of a recenlt official*trip
to northern points from Nome to
! Barrow via NAT plane, piloted by
!Chester Bromrn.
The plane' left Nome for Bar
jrow via Deer in g, Candle. Kotza
bue Walnwrlght and we met many
old friends and gained a better
understanding of the vast unex
plored wealth of the great north
ern territory.
From Kotzebue we flew up the
Noatak River which is well tim
bered with northern spruce and
'birch, crossed the DeLong Moun
tain range at an elewation of Over
4000" feet. This range is more
rugged than the Sawitooth range
^nd a good deal wider, some of
the mountains being over 5000' ft.
hlglt. From there to ^he Arctic
epast, a distance of 150 miles, the
country is sandstone, shale and is
low like the Western praries.
There is no(t a tree or willow in
sight, and some of the mountains
have the wind blown appearance
of the Arizona formation. We hit
the Arctic coast at Icy Cape.
✓ This formation is known to con
tain large deposits of high grade
coal and oil. The first stop was
aft Wainwright and after deliver
ing mail and taking on gas, we
continued on to Harrow. Fog
compelled us to sit down at an old
native igloo, it was mostly a snow
house, and we couldn’t afford to
light the large airplane torch for
tear it would melt the igloo down,
so we sat around for a few hours
and blew frost into each others
faces.
Soon, however, the fog lifted,
and in iG minutes we were in the
air and 30 minutes later Barrow
was in sight. Here we received
a royal welcome. Morelander
who was the principal passenger,
had freeh spuds and other goodies
to cheer the natives.
At Barrow we met Mr. and Mrs.
Dr. Griedt, Mr. Morgan, the Trun
dle family, Mr. Hoosen, C. J.-Mc
Gregor, the later had grown a ala
Freuchen. Miss Bailey is in
charge of the hospital. ' Soon
everybody was busy reading and
answering letters, and the follow
ing day we returned as far as
Wainwright where fog compelled
us to stop.
Wainwright from the air is quite
a sight. Thousands of dogs stak
ed out, cldlhps-llnes a Autter with
reindeer sikins. They kill on an
average of 200 reindeer per,
month. The herd numbers about
17,000. The population is well
over 300 natives and three white
men. Mr. Evans as teacher, also
has charge of the herd, and no
reindeer are killed without a per
mit.
Mr. Dick Hall who has a trading
post three miles distant., at the
old Amundsen North Poie head
quarters, is doing fine.
Jim Allen, U. S. Commissioner,
who had just arrived from a va
cation in the s ates, via PiAA air
plane, piloted by Jerry Jones, was
not long getting into action. In
the evening Mr. Allen performed
a marriage ceremony according to
the Espicopaiian rites. I bought
the candy. Soon another couple
stepped up. So It cost me more
candy. All I said was “next."
It Is understood that Jim Alletf
will return to Pt. Hope to carry
on whaleimg activities for the
MOM movie picture "Eskimo.”
John Hegneas is trying to charm
some Polar bears at Cape Lis
bon rne.
Pilot Jerry Jones with Machini
clan Ruddy went north to Barrow,
while Pilot Chester Brown return
ed across country to Kotsdbue and
Nome.
At Kotzebue we met Marshal
Chas. D. Jones and wKe on their
way to Pt. Hope on official busi
ness. The -parity returned shortly.
