Lubcke Alaska Highway Patrol, who made the trip from | Spokane, Wash., to Whitehorse, Y T., and reported on his travels to Frank A. Metcalf, chief of the Alaska Highway Patrol. Lubcke spent six days on the road to make the trip, leaving Spo- kane on Highway 195 and crossing the U. 8. border at Kingsgate with ‘the highway this far in splendid condition.” He eontinued on High- way 3 to spend the first night out at Fernie, B. C., where gas was 47.5 cents a gallon, hotel rates were $3.50, and road conditicns were fair | “due to maintenance of pavement from the border.” The second day took Lubcke to Edmonton, Alberta, a distance of 411 miles, all pavement. Gas prices ‘were 37.5 cents a gallon, with $3.50 hotel rates. The third day Lubcke left the .| pavement about 40 miles north of Edmonton, continuing on Highway 2 to Clyde, Alberta, turning west on Highway 18 as far as West- lock, Ala., then north on Highway 34 to Smith, Ala. “This portion of roadway is all graveled,” Lubcke said, “but in very good condition and is a short cut of about 19 miles, accommodations on this short cut are few but there are some under construction, as well as service stations. Again we hit Highway No. 2 at Smith, Ala., stay- ing on No. 2 till we reached Tri- angle, Ala. At this point we took another shortcut saving about 86 miles on Highway No. 34. At Good- man, Ala,, I crossed the ferry and the Smoky River. (Bridge will be open for general traffic Aug. 1, 1949, according to maintenance crew.) We stopped in Grand Prairie, Ala., for the night. Distance from Ed- monton to Grand Prairie, 383 miles. Rates $2.00 (fair) meals $1.15. Gas 43 cents, road conditions good but dusty, graveled. Stop-over places averaged about every 25 miles. “Leaving Grand Prairie on the ‘|fourth day on Highway No. 2 the trip was continued on graveled roadway. Near Demmitt Ala., the traveling was slowed down consid- erable due to dirt roadway and very crooked, for about 30 miles before arriving in Pouce Coupe, Ala., then on good graveled roadway all the way to Dawson Creek, B, C.” After leaving Dawson Creek on the fourth day the journey was continued to mile post 233, stopping over there for the night. Road con- ditions were very good but dusty. Distance from Grand Prairie, 393 miles. The fifth night was spent in Lower Post, a distance of 307 miles from Lum and Abners at mile 233. Rates $4.00, meals $1.20 (roast beef), gas 69 cents. He arrived in Whitehorse, ¥. T., on the sixth day to end the trip.
