 A party headed by MT. Park CT completed last year a sur vey from the mouth of the Chickamin River to its source at the Chickamin glacier, the easterly end of which projects into the upper end of Texas Creek valley, and the present trail building project is a se- quence of the latter activity.
 MT. Fred J. Hughes; resident engineer of the Bureau of Pub lie Roads, informed the Herald that the Parker party began work on the project last week. With the completion of the trail construction at LeDuc, the party will continue up the latter stream, making a sur vey and building trail enroute, until the boundary is reached.
 The proposed trail will great ly facilitate prospecting in the Chickamin section and should prove an important factor in the early development of that promising mineraliZed region.
