A Big Program
Great emphasis Ii put upon the
fact they are not in = hurry. They
win live aboard or camp on the
beach en- route. They'll fish and
hunt to supplement their two
months stores.
They don't expect any picnic
although they intend getting every
possible bit Of enjoyment from .
hard Job.
And their voyage win b.
both hard and long. They're
headed for Valdez.
There they intend 10 sell the
cheechako II they can. or just
abandon her with . shrug and a
small financial loss.
Because although this sailing

quite different.
Purpose Of the current project
Ii to get themselves to Fairbanks.
Nub has several gold claims staked
near there.
They'll walk from Valdez Tor
wherever they may later choose
for a port Of disembarkation) TO
Fairbanks.
Work. Not Worries
II sounds like = mighty big
enterprise-but then, they're young
and strong and they're accustomed
to hard work and simple Mfe.
They've lived off the land before
this.
Aware Of the ever present
threat Of 4 lee shore or some other
disaster. Nub just grins and says
that would make the hike plenty
long" AZ for minor misadven-
lures, they expect them and yet
are borrowing no trouble from an
unknown future.
They are definitely "doing 1t the
hard way" and they realize 1t.
But 50 years ago lesser men did
as much-and they've nothing to
lose and much to gain. It takes
money to make very elaborate
choices In this world-with no
money. but plenty of health, de-
termination and CUTS, they'll give
It whirl, thanks.
And neither do they have de-
lusions about becoming million
aires with their first few shovel
fulls Of Alaska gravel. Fair wages
for hard work-only perhaps"
will they strike q streak rich
enough to provide q little nest
egg.
When Tomorrow Comes
None of the trio have any plans
which include the wealth tradi-
tonal to adventures of the sort.
But neither do they entertain any
doubts about making a living. We
gathered they are making no plans
beyond that.
Except Nub.
