That freighting conditions on Dime
creek, in the Seward peninsula coun-1
try, the scene of the placer strike ct
last summer, reminds one very much
of the conditions which confronted the
early-day stampeders from Skagway
and Dyea to Dawson, is the report
that comes from the new camp, in
fact, it is stated that a man packing
freight on his back can now make al
most as much money per day at Dime
creek as he could packing over C'hil
koot pass in the early days.
The freighting is being done front
Dime Landing, on the Koyuk river,
to Dime creek, a distance of six and
one-half miles. For this short distance
a charge of $80 per ton for freighting
is being made. The reason for the
high charge is that the trails are prac
tically impassable on account of a lack
of snow.
This condition of affairs is having a
great deal to do with the holding back
of mining development work on Dime, *
according to report. Another reason
for the holding back of mining is the
fact that sufficient wood cannot be
freighted to the claims on which work
is being done to keep the boilers fired
up. It is hoped, however, that condi
tions can be made better next summer
by a wagon road which the Alaska
road commission has promised to in
stall for the benefit o- the Dime min
ers.
There will be a number of outfits
mining on Dime during the coming
mining season. There are, however,
no new strikes of material importance.
There are about 200 men In the dis
trict at the present time, which, the
report says, is all that the camp will
support.
