WE HAVE SCENIC
ATTRACTIONS TOO
The • ordova Daily Times, un
der date of day 9th. states that
Col. J. G. Steese, president of
the Alaska mad commission rec
eutly sent a communication tosev
eral agencies, directing their at
tention to the many facilities
that will he afforded tourists &
travelers to the interior, via the
tiich irdson Highway, which is
now in i high state of efficiency
and will provide a splendid
route to tourists desiring to see
some of the interior at a smal^
expense.
No one doubts, after the
thousands and thousands of dol
lars that have been spent on it,
t lat it is a high class road and
in a high state of efficiency, ev
en for this time of the year, in
fact it is one of the best roads
in the Territory today, but it is
also one of the most uninterest
ing from atourist’s point of view
especially from Willow Creek to
Fairbanks. The trip from Chitina!
to Valdez, by way of Willow Lk
is well worth taaing, as there is
certainly some wonderful seen
cry on that run, especially thru|
rJ iekell and Keystone Canyon
l
We suggest that the McCarthy7
Commercial Club invite Colonel
Steese to visit our section this
summer ar d arrange several
trips for his benefit, which as
far as scenery is concerned, can
not be equalled,
A trip to Nicolai peak, an ea*v !
five hours travel with saddle
hordes, Iravinir here in the cool
of the eveninsr and reaching the
Summit about *2. a. m. we will
w’asrer that even the most sat
iated tourist has not seen any
thin? more heantifn’ than the
panoramic glory of glaciers, riv
ers. mountain peaks, and some
times a. smoking volcano, which
vTill unfold themselves to the
vision with the rising of the sun
at that hour.
And that’s only one trip.
