Miss Dora Keen
NOTED MILLIONAIRE WOMAN
MOUNTAIN CLIMBER. MAR
RIES MAN WHO ES
CORTED ON TRIPS.
Dora Keen, the noted million dollar
woman mountain climber, and Geo.
William Handy, a sourdough of Al
aska, were married at McCarthy, Al
aska, recently. Behind this, says the
Juneau Empire, there rests romance
in real life—the story of the struggle
of a man and woman against the el
ements—the proof that Dan Cupid
lives not only in the langurous at
mosphere of the tropics or along the
shores of moonlit lakes in more tem
perate climates, but that he abides
also in the most primitive and inac
cessible wildernesses.
Miss Dora Keen is wealthy in her
own right. She is a noted explorer
and mountain climber. Her husband
is a frontiersman of the best type—
courageous, determined, resourceful.
Their acquaintance began in 1912 at
McCarthy, Alaska Fresh from the
conquest of Mont Blanc, the Matter
horn and other high peaks in Europe,
Miss Keen went to Alaska to try an
ascent of Mount Blackburn, whose
summit, 16,140 feet above sea level,
had never been trodden by foot of
man—or woman.
In the party that accompanied her
were George Handy, John Barrett,
Bob Isaacson, Axel Walstrom, John
Bloomquist, C. W. Kolb and W. W.
Lang, all seasoned Alaskans, accus
tomed to living in the higher alti
tudes and immune to the cold winds
that swept down on them from Sco
| lai glacier. They left McCarthy on
j April 22, and, all walking on snow
| shoes, reached the base of the nor
thern mammoth mountain, five days
later.
Three days afterward Miss Keen
was within a day’s travel of the top
of the mountain, when a furious
i storm broke loose and raged with in
; creasing velocity and violence for
: thirteen days. In the blizzard of
| whirling snow they were unable to
; see each other at a distance of a
: few feet. They were without a tent
| or shelter. Handy, with his snow
; shoes, dug caverns into the snow,,
j and there the party crouched till ;
j the storm subsided.
n„ xf„..
i They were then short of food, but 1
Miss Keen determined to reach the
summit before returning. Together
with Handy, she conquered the
mountain on May 19.
The returning journey was full of
peril. The weather _ warmed and
many avalanches crashed down the
serrated sides of the mountain. The
glaciers which they had crossed be
gan to open up big crevasses in new
and unexpected places. Another
blizzard overtook them, but this
time they faced the howling winds,
for they were then in lower alti
tudes. They finally reached. their
base camp, and ultimately Miss Keen
returned to Cordova and thence to
the United States..
She came north last June. She j
said nothing of her intentions. Per
haps in the back of her mind was the |
thought that the man who could con
quer a northern blizzard and Mount
Blackburn was a good man to tie to
for a life partner. But this is a
mere conjecture.
There’s no telling exactly where
Dan Cupid stepped in, for the angel
of death and the angel of love stalk
side by side on the northern moun
tain trails, and romance wanders
loose in the mystic land, “where nor
thern lights come down o’ nights to
dance on the houseless snows.”
After an absence of more than two
years in the Lake Minchumina coun
try, Stephen Foster and Walter Ames
have returned to Fairbanks. The
European war had been in progress
more than eight months before they
learned of it from travelers.
Volney Richmond, manager for the
Northern Commercial Co., with head
quarters at Fairbanks, has recently
returned to that city from a trip down
the river, and says that the Ruby dis
trict is one of the most prosperous of
the north.
