NORTHERN RECORD
 FOR MOTOR TRAVEL

U. s. Army engineers have just completed a remarkable expedition in White truck, from Valdez to Fairbanks, Alaska, and return, a distance of S26 miles, in 19 days.
 Although the trip was undertaken .primarny to determine the possibil- .ily and practicability of motor trans portation in Alaska, the engineers mapped out a route which reduces by at least one month, the time requlr- ed to reach the larger interior towns particularly those on the upper Hu- kon and the headquarters of the Panama river.
 The fact that standard truck of a design already employed in the army, successfully carried it's rated load over the entire route in both directions, will undoubtedly give a great impetus to the road cOnstruc- ton actually being carried on by ! the Alaska Board of Road Commis- siOners along the trail of the mili- tary telegraph line LabOring under the difficulties of a short season and the greater difficulty of trans porting supplies, the road commission has worked wonders in a wilderness.
 The expedition was typical of Uncl Sans method of getting important information. A White 15OO-lb. truck had been shipped to the Alaska Road Commissioners early in the summer. It was delivered in Val dez on July 26 and two days later it was started on the trail to Fair banks, there to be joined by Lieut. Ieuant Colonel Richardson, president of the Board of Road Commissioners and other engineers.
 The truck left Valdez with a load Of supplies and a quantity of mail for the camps along the military telegraph line. Considerable mail was carried to points where none ! had been received in over a year. In order that the trip might reveal average conditions, the truck was not especially equipped, except in the matter of fuel and road tools. Food was carried for use only in the 1 desoIate regions where there are no road houses" or settlements.
 Leaving Valdez in a drizzling rain they crossed the delta of the Val deg glacier and almost immediately entered Keystone canyon, 14 miles long, whose walls of ice and rock rise nearly 1000 it. above Lowe riv- 1 CT, typical glacier stream. The en- tire region is volcanic showing great outcrOppiugs of mineral, with rock of weird formations and varied col ors. The surface was covered with thin blanket of volcanic ash. The trail leads along narrow cliff-trails, blasted out of solid rock and run hing almost at the foot of number of beautiful cascades.
 After spending the night at set clement known as WOrkmeu's, they 1 resumed the journey through the canyon and commenced the real as l cent on the trail over the Chugach mountains, with a steady climb of twenty-five and One-half miles to

 cliffs and scarcely any snow or ice. While the surface was soft, it vas easily negotiated by the truck.
 The truck was carried across the Panama river on ferry to the ,own of McCarty, and then driven along the bank of the Panama to Munson's. On the ninth day, after covering 379 miles from Valdez, it reached the northern end of the journey at the town of Fairbanks.
 Three days were spent in Fair banks preparatory to the return trip. The truuck was again loaded with supplies and mail. Colonel Richard son took personal charge on the re- turn trip and was accompanied by Superintendent Ingraham, LieutenaLt Egerton and Steel, Thomas H. Par ramore, Jr., and Homer Jones. The total load for the return trip was 21OO lbs, 600 in excess of the capa- city of the truck.
 Leaving Fairbanks on Aug. g., again ill a downpour of rain, they retraced their route as closely as surface and weather conditions woul permit. When they reached the Guncreek flats they found that the steady rain for 8 days had made the glacier mud very sloppy and wiped out the trail for considerable dis tances. Quicksand was also con- stant menace. Despite the use of much brush and timber the danger could not be entirely avoided and the truck settled deep enough to lose traction. Similar conditions existed throughout the entire dash through the Gulkana and Copper River deltas.
 Near Gulkana, they met a mili- tary pack of six horses, an army field wagon, a blackboard and de- tachment of troops in command of first lieutenant, sent out by the War Department to investigate an alleged gold strike on the Chisana River. Six horses were required to pull two-ton load and most of the load necessarily consisted of feed for the horses.
 Twenty-si miles south of Gulkana, at Willow creek, they made q de- tour to Chisana, adding 6S miles to their journey and lengthening the return trip to 10 days.
 At Sheep creek, just before re- entering the Keystone canyon, they were compelled to cut road in the woods for 800 yards, to avoid a bad washout caused by the torrent of melting glacier. A bridge, 12 ft. above the water when the truck crossed it on the outbound trip, had been completely carried away, and it was necessary to cut through the woods to a suitable fording place Adding to their difficulties were swarms of moose-flies and, surpris- ingly enough, equally large enough swarms of mosquitoes, compelling the entire party to wear nets over their heads.
 When they reached the Keystone canyon the trail had been washed a. way in many places. Thousands of tons of rock and ice had been dis lodged and, in falling, had carried away bulkheads of solid stone sup porting the trail. This forced the crew to fill in great gulches with stones before they could proceed.
 At the finish of the trip on Aug. 19, the truck was again placed on the trail to carry supplies and mail to road camps and settlements in the vicinity of Valdez. Colonel Richardson said he believed that the road work contemplated by the Alaska Commissioners will make it
