GREAT SNOWSLIDES
NEAR JUNEAU
Three great enowslides, one
of which swept a car off the
Thane road, and another that
completely dammed Gold Ck.,
occurred near Juneau recently.
Two were in Gold Creek Basin
and the third near Thane. The
one on the Thane road almost
cost Alex Kiloh, jr., his life. He
was driving to town when he
heard the roar of the ap
proaching mass of snow, ice
and debris, and a rock coming
ahead of the slide blocked his
path. He hurriedly abandoned
the car and was able to get out
! of the danger zone. The car
| was either covered deeply by
j the slide or was carried out to
Gastineau channel. The waters
i of the channel were coveted
with debris almost across to
Douglas Island, and snow and
dbris were carried over to the
old Treadwell dock. The other
two slides occurred about mid
