He became involved in various highway construction and surveying projects in the north. He and his wife settled in Whitehorse in 1958, where he worked on federal highway projects. He was the Pipeline Co-ordinator for the Territorial Government, and used his knowledge as a consulting engineer when he was an alderman on the Whitehorse City Council. His interest in history led him to write his first book "Prelude to Bonanza", which was published in 1976 by Gray's Publishing Ltd. He was involved in many other historical research projects, including a history of Kluane National Park, and writing columns for the Whitehorse Star. Allen Wright died in Whitehorse, October 18, 1983. His wife retired to Victoria. Scope and Content: This fonds consists of imprint material, colour films, maps of the Yukon, photos, correspondence and research and reference files, collected and created by Allen Wright in his research of early Yukon history, as well as through his work as a highway engineer. The fonds consists of two series: Historical Research; and Transportation Source of Supplied Title Note: Title based on provenance of the fonds.

  • Landslide Dams and Creek Stabilization
    2005 Dawson City, Yukon Landslide Dams and Creek Stabilization at the Former Clinton Creek Asbestos Mine Gil Robinson, P.Eng., Ken Skaftfeld, P.Eng., Rolf Aslund, P.Eng., UMA Engineering, Winnipeg, Manitoba Hugh Copland, P.Eng. Government of Yukon, Whitehorse, Yukon 1.0 Abstract Risk assessment techniques were used to identify the risk associated with a breach of a landslide dam in the Clinton Creek valley at the former Clinton Creek Asbestos Mine, which is located about 100 km northwest of Dawson City, Yukon. Since closure of the mine in 1978, concerns have been raised with respect to the physical condition of the site, in particular downstream hazards associated with breaching of the landslide dam forming the Hudgeon Lake outlet. The risk was mitigated by designing a stable channel over the landslide dam, also known as the Clinton Creek waste rock dump, of which the most important design component is the gabion drop structures. The gabion drop structures act as grade control points which are connected by a nearly flat graded channel to prevent erosion of the channel fill materials. Gabions were selected because they are simple to construct yet robust and flexible enough to accommodate some lateral movement of the creeping landslide mass. The channel stabilization works consist of four gabion drop structures constructed within the first 200 m of the channel downstream of the Hudgeon lake outlet. In the fall of 2002, the first stage of these repairs was undertaken, which included the construction of Drop Structure #1 and re- grading of the Hudgeon Lake outlet. The second drop structure was built in 2003 and the last two drop structures were constructed in 2004.

  • Yukon River Restoration and Enhancment Fund 2008 Conceptual Proposal
    YUKON RIVER RESTORATION AND ENHANCMENT FUND 2008 CONCEPTUAL PROPOSAL NUMBER: URE-04N-08 PROJECT TITLE: Ruby Salmon Data Collection Project PROJECT PROPONENT: Ed Sarten, Ruby Tribal Council PO box 21, Ruby, AK 99768 (907) 468-4475 [email protected] POTENTIAL PROJECT PARTNERS/ADDITIONAL PARTICIPANTS: Brandy Berkbigler, Tanana Chiefs Conference (907) 452-8251 [email protected] Lara Dehn, Alaska Department of Fish & Game (907) 459-7288 [email protected] PROJECT LOCATION: Ruby, AK PROJECT OBJECTIVES: 1.) To collect age, sex, length, weight, and girth data as well a genetic tissue samples from Chinook salmon caught with fishwheels and set nets, the two types of gear used in this area. 2.) To better understand stock biology and composition of the Ruby harvest throughout subsistence windows. Budget Priority Framework 2006: • Improve information on biological composition of run; and, • involve and educate users and non-users in communities to increase their desire to maintain and protect salmon stocks and habitat. US and Canada Yukon River Salmon Committee Joint Technical Committee Plan: • Estimate the stock biological or other composition of escapements – 1.1.2; and, • build and maintain community capacity – 3.2.3. Budget Priorities for 2008 & Near Term Priorities: 3. Determine the quality of stock escapement 4. Community Education and Stewardship PROJECT SUMMARY: Management of the Chinook salmon fishery is difficult due to the mixed stocks of salmon, commercial and subsistence fishing, the many tributaries and the vast distance that the Yukon River flows. As a result, several controversies have arisen over time. First are concerns over allocation of the fishery based on the size of salmon runs year to year.

The focus of my evaluation worit was placer, but I also examined any interesting hardrock showings which I came across. This section of the Fortymile is bounded on the downstream end by Clinton Creek and upstream by the Fortymile Canyon; a distance of approximately 7 miles. The creeks which I examined were: Clinton Creek and a Clinton Creek tributary. Beck Creek, Mickey Creek, Maiden Creek, Powerhouse Creek, Hoodoo Creek and Voodoo Creek. I limited my activities to areas which did not have active placer claims or leases recorded on them. The Fortymile River mining district is located approximately 40 air miles northwest of Dawson as shown on Map 1. The latitude of the area in which I worked is approximately 64° 20' and the longitude is approximately 140°40'.
