Lucania conquered, Ro- bert Bates, associate of Bradford Washburn, Jr,, on the climb up the highest, of North America’s peaks that had withstood the assaults of mountaineers, is now on his way back East to get down to work. Mr. Bates is on the faculty of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania and has a group of lectures to prepare for his | English classes. I “In many ways we were lucky on |our expedition this summer, but in others we did not get such good breaks,” Mr. Bates declared. “To begin with fortune was against us, |when Bob Reeves, our pilot, was able to make only one landing on Walsh Glacier. He was not able to bring in Russell Dow and Norm Bright to join us, so Brad and I were left to do the job alone. That was not only a tough break for us, but was a tougher one for Bright, who had turned down invitations to track tours in Europe and Japan to be with us. He had also refused to defend his mile title won in the Oxford-Cambridge meet last sum- mer so as not to arrive in Alaska too late. Then, he had to be left behind. One Geod Luck Strcke “The greatest stroke of good luck we had was in being able to use what little good weather we got for our climbs. We had only three days of fine weather, but when it |came it found us at our tenth camp, right betv;'en Mt. Lucania and Mt Steele, all ready to start. “We used the first day of that clear weather to go up Lucania, the climb taking us eleven and one-half hours, up and back. The next day we broke trail and established food caches along our route up Mt. Steele, then the third day we went up and over Steele. The food caches were a bit ‘of preparedness, in case a storm had broken and caught us. But, as it was, we were able to keep right on going and left our caches behind us. “Another stroke of good luck was our meeting a pack train about |twenty miles from Burwash Land- ing and being able to ride to: the airfield there and signal Joe Cros- son for the PAA plane to pick us up there and carry us through to Fairbanks, from where Brad flew directly to Valdez, I following him a day later. I had intended tg, go out over the Richardson Highway, but the earthquake, which was not too serious, closed that and I had to take the plane.” Washburn at Valdez At Valdez, Mr. Bates boarded, the steamer Alaska to come to Juneau, |while Mr. Bashburn is remaining at Valdez for about three weeks, to (finish up their work and take some additional pictures. Mr. Bates re- \ported that after being left behind on the climb, Mr. Dow took a job at Valdez, while Norman Bright went on up to Nome. Hearking back to the climb of Mt. Lucania, Mr. Bates said that they found out just what could be done with snowshoes on their way up. “It would have been impossible to make the climb without them,” he said, “as new snow was continually fall- ing, making trail-breaking tough.” “We had a wonderful view from the top of Lueania,” he stated. “The opposite face fell away for a theer drop of about 10,000 feet. | Anglers’ Beauty Choice ENROUTE SOUTH | Powell, pretty disciple of Izaak Walton, won first. pnu at g:;lfi"::gyliench N pJ in the “prettiest woman angler contest.” Fish- ermen themselves voted MISS Powell the best-looker. Do you blame them? The day was so clear that from the peak, we could see the whole of the mountain circle from Mt. St. Elias to Mt. Fairweather. On top of Mt. Steele we found one of the markers left by the Wood Expedition from its climb two years ago; proving to us that the heights of snow-covered mountains vary lit- tle from year to year, despite the many conflicting opinions.” Mr. Bates is staying in Juneau at the Gastineau Hotel, but plans to sail south tomorrow morning aboard the Princess Louise to hurry back to the East coast and his profes- sional duties.
