Chas Fehring Explores
Little Known Section
Chas. Fehring, well known
local prospector, returned to
town last week after conclud
ing an extended prospecting
trip into the little known sect
ion of the Hyder district lying
between the head of Davis
River and the easterly fork of
the Chickamin River, some 20
miles west of Hyder. Going
in by way of Davis River, the
trip was of six weeks duration
and traversed a section of terr
itory about 25 miles in width
in which but little previous ex
ploration has been done, main
ly on account of its general in
accessibility.
As described by Mr. Fehring,
the journey was one of exceed
ing difficulty and hardship,
owing to the generally rugged
conditions prevailing through
out that section. Lofty mount
ain ridges interspersed with
narrow, precipitous valleys
were encountered throughout
the entire distance and travel j
was rendered doubly difficult !
by dense undergrowth which '
impeded virtually every foot of
the lower levels.
Mr. Fehring has prospected ;
over a large part of Alaska,en-1
countering at times some ex
ceedingly hard traveling, but
avers that on no trip in his ex
perience has he encountered
more difficult traveling condit
ions.
The geological formation:
encountered were similar to
those in the local area from the
Texas Greek batholith south
ward and no promising miner
alization was encountered any- *
where in the region. *
