Ccrdova, Alaska, August 1o.-Comp-e
ton of a projected automobile road Is
miles up the beds of painted streams
rs expected to oren to tourists from all
parts of the world the valley of ten
thousand smokes, in the Mount Katmai
region of Alaska, about so miles north
of Kodiak island
Enterprising motion picture producers,
Following scientific expeditions into the
strange valley, have returned here with
films of the myriad Smokes" and with
reports of a shorter and easier route into
the district
When the Katnai volcano erupted in
1872 and covered thousands of SQUARE
miles with ash and pumice, killing all
vegetation and game and wipng out
more than one settlement, it was regard
ed as great calamity. But the eruption
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-09-07

uncovered a strange formation which is
declared to be one of the wonders of the
world
The Smokes literally thousands of
them, are clouds or jets of steam under
various pressures, emitted from holes and
remarkably colored caverns in the solid
flied volcanic clay. The entire valley,
which is shaped somewhat like a clover
leaf, seems to be gradually solidifyins.
The Indian who recently guided motion
picture party said many square miles,
covered with semi-liquid hot mud a year
ago, are now crossed without difficulty.
In one of the three arms of the valley
is Tive" glacier, at the foot off which
is a beautiful cobalt-blue lake of hot
water. In another arm is the Falling
mountain, down whose surface roll con-
tinually huge boulders broken off rear
temperature.
Besides the scenic possibilities the val
ley is said to posses vast deposits of vir-
tually pure sulphur, arsenic and other
chemicals. Black sand was found in the
many streams, indicating possibilities of
gold.
The atmosphere resulting from the
unique association of steam, hot mud
and the eternal SHOWS which ring the
valley is reported remarkably bracing
There is no wood in the valley, but Wis
itors have easily cooked beans, meats and
eve baked bread by lowering cooking yes
sells into the steam holes.s
