  • 1 Statement of Herbert Frost, Associate Director
    STATEMENT OF HERBERT FROST, ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR, NATURAL RESOURCES STEWARDSHIP AND SCIENCE, NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, BEFORE THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON NATIONAL PARKS OF THE SENATE ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMITTEE, CONCERNING S. 1897, A BILL TO REVISE THE BOUNDARIES OF GETTYSBURG NATIONAL MILITARY PARK TO INCLUDE THE GETTYSBURG TRAIN STATION, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES. June 27, 2012 Mr. Chairman, members of the subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to present the views of the Department of the Interior on S. 1897, a bill to add the historic Lincoln Train Station in the Borough of Gettysburg and 45 acres at the base of Big Round Top to Gettysburg National Military Park in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Department supports enactment of this legislation with a technical amendment. Gettysburg National Military Park protects major portions of the site of the largest battle waged during this nation's Civil War. Fought in the first three days of July 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg resulted in a victory for Union forces and successfully ended the second invasion of the North by Confederate forces commanded by General Robert E. Lee. Historians have referred to the battle as a major turning point in the war - the "High Water Mark of the Confederacy." It was also the Civil War's bloodiest single battle, resulting in over 51,000 soldiers killed, wounded, captured or missing. The Soldiers' National Cemetery within the park was dedicated on November 19, 1863, when President Abraham Lincoln delivered his immortal Gettysburg Address. The cemetery contains more than 7,000 interments including over 3,500 from the Civil War.

The changes started at the top, with the arrival of new Superintendent Don Striker in January 2013. He drove across the country to Alaska from New River Gorge National River in West Virginia, where he had been the superintendent for five years. He also served as superintendent of Mount Rushmore National Memorial (South Dakota) and Fort Clatsop National Memorial (Oregon) and as special assistant to the Comptroller of the National Park Service. Some of the challenges that will be on his plate – implementing the Vehicle Management Plan, re-bidding the main concession contract, and continuing to work on a variety of wildlife issues with the State of Alaska. Don meets Skeeter, one of the park’s sled dogs The park and its partners celebrated a significant milestone, the centennial of the first summit of Mt. McKinley, with several activities and events. On June 7, 1913, four men stood on the top of Mt. McKinley, or Denali as it was called by the native Koyukon Athabaskans, for the first time. By achieving the summit of the highest peak in North America, Walter Harper, Harry Karstens, Hudson Stuck, and Robert Tatum made history. Karstens would continue to have an association with the mountain and the land around it by becoming the first Superintendent of the fledgling Mt. McKinley National Park in 1921. *A speaker series featuring presentations by five Alaskan mountaineers and historians on significant Denali mountaineering expeditions, premiered on June 7thwith an illustrated talk on the 1913 Ascent of Mt.

Less than two percent of the Yukon’s total land base is suitable for agriculture. Growing conditions are difficult, production costs high and local markets sometimes limited. But Yukon farmers have been tenacious, and over the 175 years of Yukon farming history, have provided Yukoners with access to delicious, high-quality, locally grown fresh food. First Farmer 1840-52 (approx.) Farms followed trade. • Robert Campbell, Hudson’s Bay Company fur trader, first farmer in the Yukon. Born on a sheep farm in Perthshire, Scotland, came to Rupert’s Land at age 22 to manage the experimental farm at Red River Settlement. • 1834 Asked for transfer to fur trade; life of adventure! Much hunger, threat of scurvy: Dease Lake, last meal was boiled parchment windows and gut from snowshoes=porridge. • Campbell brought seeds with him to each fort he established in the Yukon: Fort Frances, Pelly Banks, Fort Selkirk. • Crops mostly failure. Sudden frosts. Starvation at Fort Frances. Barley successful at Fort Selkirk. • Discovery that Pelly and Yukon River one and same, new safer route to Fort Simpson via Porcupine River, Mackenzie R. results in optimism about future, Campbell’s request for livestock. • Campbell haying (in prep for livestock?) at original Ft. Selkirk in 1852 when Chilkat attacked. Fort Selkirk abandoned. Trader, Miner-Farmers 1880s, early 90s • Traders and miners in Yukon drainage: Forty Mile, Stewart River, Fort Reliance.

He is listed as passenger number 461 with all the other spellings and the publications of origin abbreviated. (AD26) is an abbreviation for the Daily Alaska Dispatch for October 26, 1918. I used Zylstra because that is the name used when the body was identified. The original list of spellings was well over 1,000 entries. Most of the names that follow have multiple spellings from multiple sources. Many of the names in the following list are likely duplicate entries. The first two names are probably the same person.
