ANCHOH.UiE, July 5. Through one
of the treasure vaults of Alaska
the Broad I’ass country the route of
the government railroad will he lo
cated this summer. The surveying
work will he directed by T W. Sec
rest, who left here with a party of
thirty men. a train of pack animals,
and food supplies sufficient to last
until late in October or early in Nov
etn her
The surveyors and their outfit went
to the present end of steel, which
is at Montana rreek, Ha miles nortti
of Anchorage. From Montana creek
they will travel to the scene of their
season's operations.
The Broad i’ass is the divide on the
railroad route between the seacoast
and interior divisions of the trans
portation line It has an elevation of
approximately L’f.ou feet, and is about
195 miles in a northerly direction
from Anchorage and about 150 miles
in a southerly direction from Fair
banks.
l.ack of transportation facilities has
delayed not only the development of
the Broad Pass country but anything
more than a cursory investigation of
its resources. As the result of desult
ory prospecting, it Is known, however,
to abound in valuable minerals. Cop
per occurs n profuse quantities, placer
gold in many of the creeks promis
ing rich returns and assays of ore from
some lode deposits are quite encour
aging in silver content.
The district, aside from its mineral
wealth, is known for its game. It has
a luxuriant growth "I grass in the
summer season, which fact makes pos
sible the existence of s-1 much wild
life. |i is the home of moose, earl
bou, sheep, la-ar, luxes and wolver
ines, and of the smaller fur-bearing
animals stub as mink, martins, musk
rat , weasels and "parka" squirrels.
Ptarmigan is the chief game bird, but
there are a few grouse. Trout and
grayling run plentifully in th clear
water streams and lakes.
