Forest. He mentioned innumerable locations suitable for tourist resorts of various kinds and stressed the excellent potentialities of few in particular as having outstanding merit, One of the best in this favored group is Sitka with it's beautiful harbor and many sur rounding attractions. On top of the list also is Warm Springs Bay with it's magnificent lake, hot springs, and waterfalls-an ideal spot for health resort. Taku lodge, where hunting and fishing is the double recreation, is to be develop ed into a big resort.
 Bell Island Hot Springs, located near Ketchikan, is another recom- mendation of Forrest for expansion possibilities. Bell Island is already we'll known as a resort but addi- tional facilities are needed to meet the demands of future tourist trade.
 Forrest returned to Juneau well informed of the country covered in his survey and able to supply the information desired by the De- velopment Board, which in turn, will he able to answer the many inquiries from prospective operators concerning resort locations which appear to offer the best possibili- ties.
 Juneau is now the only town with a large hotel equipped at the present time to take care of the flood of tourists which is to be expected in Southern Alaska when travel facilities resume normal op- eration All of these towns should be planning expansion of present accommodations and construction of new ones for the very near fu- ture.

The survey QlSclOSeQ all lHlIlleul- ate field for all types of enterprises such as gas stations. stores, restau- rants. and small shops. Oppor- tunity for all who wish to invest in the coming development of Alas ka is almost unlimited. Since Big Timber Lodge, Eureka Roadhouse, and handful of smaller lodgings are the only new accommodations within easy reach of Anchorage, there is real need for additional facilities in this vicinity.
 Commercial Side
 Interior Alaska is a land of lakes and the fishing sport development cannot be recommended too highly as commercial undertaking Fresh water streams abound in trout, white fish, and grayling and this part of the country needs only lodges and cabins to attract the fishermen of America.
 For the hunter there is plenty of big game available-caribou, several variety of hear, mountain sheep and goats, and a wide variety of smaller wildlife, such as ducks, geese, grouse and ptarmigan.
 One of the places visited by For rest on his 60-day journey was Barrow, largest and most northerly Eskimo village in the Territory He was favorably impressed with the potential possibilities of this loca- ton as recreational area. It's unusual location offers a most ex- traordinary sort of hunting as it is the home of the walrus, whale and polar bear. With the neces- sary lodge facilities, guides, boats and hunting equipment, sportSmen from all over the world would be attracted to this region.
 Scenic Fiords
 Forrest is especially enthusiastic about the tourist attractions of fered on the west side of the Prince William Sound. Tn. his trip along Port Wells by boat, he came across one of the most scenic parts of Alaska in the vicinity of College Ficrd. In his opinion, the scenic beauties of College Fiord and Har- riman Fiord, north of Whittier, exceed any found in the Territory with mountains high as 13,000 feet and their many tidewater glaciers. Here are the famed Bryn Mawr, Yale, Wellesley. Smith, Harvard, etc, glaciers. Esther Island, in this locality and situated within a few miles of Whittier is an exception ally fine resort site. All of this highly scenic country around Prince William Sound is in the Chugach National Forest.
 The Cinema Hot Springs, located about 40 miles cut of Fairbanks, is regarded by Forrest as an out standing location for large re- sort in the Panama Valley. Access sible only by air at the present time, accommodations at the hot springs are not extensive, but with the building Of a road connecting with the highway at Fairbanks, a much larger enterprise would seem to be warranted.
