From that point they went
west through to the Kuskokwim.
From there they then worked
north and east to the headwat
ers of the Mulchatna thence
north to Lake Telaughna. This
tied in with the work of last
year when the party crossed the
Alaska range at the headwaters
of Lake Chaachamia and mapp
ed the headwaters of Stony riv
er.
Although weather conditions
were decidely unfavorable for
mapping the party covered an
area of approximately 1,500
square miles on the upper Mul
chatna and the west face of
the Alaska range.
Coming out they back-tracked
to the beach in Iliamna bay.
It was, as has been stated, a
region which previously had nev
er been mapped before and in
! nuemarble new lakes ranging in
| size from five to 10 miles long
; were discovered. Mr. Fitzgerald
remarked that it was a perfect
: ly beautiful country. And he
| should know whereof he speaks
| for it can safely be said without
' fear of contradiction that there
1 isn’t a younger man in the en
i tire Territory who knows his
1 Alaska as he.
Dr. Capps, Mr. Fitzgerald, Mr
Bullard and Oules, went south
on the S. S. Yukon, the first twc
| to Washington, D. C., where the>
will whip into shape the com
1 pleted maps of district plottec
;this year; Bullard is also a de
