Why they marked a cross on the map in that particular place, neither Fred nor Guy can tell you, but they re “tired of working for wages and weary of the routine of a job and city life.” Both have been in Juneau for five years, coming from Eastern Un States. Neither are mining engin and both have had little prospec ing experience, but unlike most of us who have an inclination to follow a dreaming finger on the map, Pitts | and Moyer will leave Juneau on June 21 for that fascinating cross on the map that hangs a fraction of an inch above the Arctic Circle From Fairbanks they will fly to their chosen place with Pilot L. F. & Barr, former Juneau pilot. They = will make three trips with three tons of supplies and they intend to stay two or three years On the first flight in, Barr will drop the initial freight load and land light, clear a landing field and then return with the final two loads. | There will be picks and shovels and food and clothing and all the necessities of a life far from the ® man-made street. They will take traps and snares with which to earn enough money in the long winter months to pad out their not-too sufficient funds. They will take fiber-glass cloth to use for windows in place of the oiled paper that serves in most wilderness homes. And like the prospector of a score of years before, they will take a whipsaw with which they will work out their own lumber for sltice boxes and cabin lumber.
