BAD ROADS DELAY WORK
IN COLD BAY OIL FIELD
Approximately 50 per cent only
of the supplies for the Standard and
Associated Oil Companies, has been
freighted from Kanatak to the oil
fields at the present time, according
to Otis Ross, surveyor, and who is
interested in oil claims in the East
and Wide Bay fields of the Cold ;
Bay district. Mr. Ross was in Jun-1
eau recently enroute to the States. |
where he is going in the interest'
of his holdings in Cold Bay.
Bad roads are the cause of re- j
tarding the progress of freighting;
the supplies to the oil field, Mr. :
Ross said. There is no snow so thatj
dog teams might be used and the;
mud is so deep as to make the road
practically impassable. Caterpillars
he said, make very slow progress and
travel with horses is difficult.
At the present time the supplies
are cached along the road at inter
vals from Kanatak to the fields nJ
not much is being accomplished to
ward their transportation.
The companies start'd freightingj
in the fall and expected to get all
their supplies at the fields of ,>pera- ■
tion in about three week’s lime
Between 40 and 60 men are em
ployed in the Cold Bay district by
the two oil companies at the iresent
time and a drill crew for the Asso
ciated Oil went out on the last trip
of the Admiral Watson. Little work
is being done on any claims owned
by individuals.
Mr. Ross said he understands a
drill is to be sunk in the east field
dome next spring.
Mr. Ross has spent several months
in the Cold Bay district and sur
veyed 50 claims during the season.
He expects to resume survey work
in the spring.
Kanatak is a good sized town ai
teady with a winter population of
150 people, Mr. Ross said. The ma
jority of the residents come from
other Alaskan towns, chiefly those
at the Westward. Present indica
tions are that if oil is struck in the
district, Kanatak will be one of the
metropolis of Alaska, he said. There
are now four stores, a hotel, two
restaurants, a bakery and a laundry
and several soft drink parlors in the
town and a lively and busy atmos
phere prevails throughout the place
Mr. Ross said.
