(By Mrs. J. C. Green)
Beautiful Moose Pass, situated
29 miles from Seward, and en
dowed by nature with every ne
cessity to make it a huntsman
and a fisherman’s paradise, is
the “resort’’ for this section of
Alaska. Where other cities, in the
States and elsewhere, may re
joice in a bathing beach. Moose
Pass offers to the outdoor-mind
ed, delights many times in ex
cess of that offered by a bathing
beach.
During the spring and early
summer, wild flowers and gar
den flowers abound in great pro
fusion. All species of wild flowers
adorn the slopes. Here abounds,
during the winter and summer
months, a hardy rose, which
blooms all-year around.. Its color
is pink, and the leaves have a
prickly edge.
And at Moose Pass, all du
ing the summers months, o
may secure delicious garden veg
tables, which being raised
Alaska, naturally taste bett
than vegetables from any oth
locality. Peas, carrots, cabba^
cauliflower, onions, in fact ai
desired vegetable almost, may
secured here.
Cabins or rooms may be o:
tained lor shelter during one
stay here, but that is a min
matter, for it is only at nig
that one thinks of going insic
Almost 60 miles of excellent higl
way, thru a gorgeous scenic roui
!s °Pen to the motorist. Plac

they who like to hike find mai

stay longer. Among recent folk

While it is rather late to go
i to Moose Pass this year, next
spring and summer offer won
derful possibilities. Rumor has
| it that the first snow has fallen
j among the mountains. The glor
j i°us spring and summertime^
when the flowers bloom, the fo
; liage green—the skies arched
blue—when the waters call to
the fisherman, and the open trail
to the huntsman and hiker, this
is the time to enjoy this wonder
fully lovely spot.
Gold production in the Circle
camp will be double or triple that
of last year and the season that is
now drawing to a close is regarded
as the best one from a mining
standpoint in the last 10 years.
GOLD MINING AND WAGES
Greater gold production adds to
the wealth of the world and acts
as a tonic for higher merchantile
prices and wages.
Considerable work is being done
on Deadwood creek. Billy Woodman
has 12 claims at the head of the
creek and Sam Rockness is below
him. The Stack property will be
put up for sale soon, the owners
having died last winter.
