son, and has staked ground at the
head of Camp creek and doing some
prospecting in that region.
Pat Collins, who for a number of
years has been operating by hand
method and with hose on Notobac
creek, at the head of Twin, has taken
out a pit of approximately five thou
sand feet, and his cleanup of the early
part of the season indicates that his
ground is improving in value. Be<f
rock pannings range as high as 85
cents, and he expects to have one of
the best cleanups since beginning on
Notobac.
All operators have been badly hand
icapped by continual drought, coupled
with one of the earliest bi%akup§
known. The first rains came on March
28, and instead of the usual spring
snows, rain showers came instead,
and continued alternately throughout
the season, when traveling on the
trail is ordinarily the best. By April
first the ice began to give way across
i
the Kahiltna valley, and is was neces
sary to make frequent relays on what
ever crust offered.
Most of the operators did not arrive
at their diggings in time to take ad
vantage of the first run of water,
hence the small pits ground-sluiced.
Jack Lincke had a close call while
crossing the Kahiltna on April &
While making a run to cross rotten
ice, his leader stopped at the top of a
short steep bank, and Lincke broke
through to his armpits. Holding the
runners on his shoulders until ihe
could wedge down the brake, he drag
ged himself onto solid ice and saved
his load, after being in the icy water
five minutes.
