! SEATTLE TELLS ABOUT TRIP
ON HONEYMOON TRACTOR
_
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer, of
I
I
I
March 1, has the following to say
about the double-honeymoon trip of
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Keys and Mr. j
and Mrs. James Barrack, who were |
scheduled to arrive at Healy today |
from the States:
“A ninety-mile double honeymoon i
trip on a tractor through the wilds j
of Alaska, with the thermometer 20 .
or more degrees below zero, will be ■
the novel experience of James F. !
Barrack and George Ralph Keys, j
who, w’ith their brides, are passeng- j
ers for Seward this morning on the :
Alameda.
‘‘Barrack, who is connected with
the Samson Hardware company of
Fairbanks, was confronted with the
problem of taking a tractor and
about two tons of hardware into
Fairbanks before the opening of
navigation, and his bride, Ruth Y.
Wilson, famous as a woman who
climbed the second highway peak
on Mount McKinley, suggested the i
use of the tractor for the
moon trip. Keys, also a new
who is going in with Barrack, de-1
cided to take his wife, a young
woman formerly of Tacoma, and
make it a double honeymoon.
“The trip from Seward will be
made on the government railroad
to the end of steel, where the
tractor will be put into service.
The distance to be covered by the
tractor is ninety-one miles, the first
forty-five of which is being used at
present by two caterpillar tractors
hauling freight. The rest of the
distance, however, is only open to
horse and dog teams, and the tractor
will have to break its own trail on
the road. Barrack expects the trip
between ends of steel to take three
or four days. From Healy l’iver the
remainder of the trip to Fairbanks
will be by railroad.
“The trip over the Chitina trail,
a distance of nearly 300 miles, wras
made by a tractor in the winter of
1919. Barrack’s tractor will draw’
honey- j
benedict ;
a No. 4 bobsled as a trailer. Count- I
ing the freight and baggage, the
sled and tractor will have a load
of approximately two and one-half
tons.”
