Boys Feared Lost
Return From Hike
Gerry Clark, age 16, and Jim
Minstrell, age 17, overdue from a
camping trip, arrived home at
eight o’clock Monday evening
weary from a three day hike ovei
rough country. Fear was express
ed by their parents for their safe
ty
The boys were driven to Antor
Larsen Bay Friday by Gerry’s old
er brother, Donald, and walked
inland to a small lake to camp foi
that night. They planned to returr
to Kodiak late Sunday evening.
Starting out early Saturdaj
morning, they followed a rivei
valley approximately five mile;
before reaching the coast at Ser
edni Point. Generally following
the coast line to the Monashk;
River, they encountered sheei
cliffs and rugged, brush covered
terrain. At times, even at low tide
they fought through waist high
water at the base of the cliffs
until they were able to climb tc
higher ground. They camped at
Otmeloi Point, across the channel
from Ouzinkie, Saturday night.
Finding the trip more strenuous
than they had anticipated, the boys
attempted to attract the attention
of passing bogts twice Sundaj
afternoon. Their efforts failed as
their distress signals were appar
cntly not seen or heard by anyone
on the boats.
Camping at Azimuth Point Sun
day night, they again resumed
their efforts to'attract the notice
of a boat by flashlight and a sig
nal fire. One boat turned toward
them, but apparently those aboard
were unable to see the boys

Their signal was eventually seen
by a man at a mill on Spruce Is
land. The man, who has been un
identified, went to the campsite
to investigate. The boys informed
him that they were alright, but
were tired and overdue at home.
He returned to Spruce Island.
Basil and Dorothy Clark, Gerry's
parents, and Ray Minstrell, Jim’s
father, began to worry when the
boys failed to arrive home by Mon
day morning. Kodiak Airways pil
ots were alerted, but failed tp lo
cate the two as they had already
started inland over deer trails.
The Clark’s dog, “Bounce," and
Jim’s dog, "Duchess” were with
the boys in the long, hard trek.
According to Mrs. Clark, “Bounce
had had it!” Gerry added that
“it was rough going.” Fortunately
the boys carried sufficient food so
they did not suffer from hunger .
during their trip.
POLICE SLOGAN
If motorists would think a little
faster they probably would drive
a little slower.
