Preparations for opening the Valdez
end of the Richardson highway dur
ing the present season are Joeing
undertaken by the Alaska Road Com
mission, according to a statement
made by officials of that body. Six
horses in charge of a caretaker are
being shipped to Valdez on the
steamer Alaska and on their arrival
at that place a small crew of men will
probably be started to work on pre
liminary operations pending larger
activities.
The plans for work in that district
have not been definitely determined
up to the present time and will prob
ably be held open until further action
by Congress regarding the appropri
ation for Alaska road work this
year. Should the full amount asked
for be granted, it is believed that the
commission will go ahead rapidly
with permanent construction of the
destroyed portions of the trail lying
through and south of Keystone Can
yon where glacier streams have total
ly wiped out the trail and closed
it to traffic between Valdez and the
Interior. *
Col. J. C. Gotwals, chairman of the
commission, is at present at Valdez
looking over the ground with a view
to selecting a route for the new trail.
Suggestions have been made that it
be constructed over the benches and
side hills, leaving the old road south
of Comfort, placing it above the can
yon and out of reach of the glacier
overflows.
