In 1925, also, at the request of one of the companies engaged in packing salmon in the Port Moller district, along the northern shore of the Alaska Penin­ sula, the work done there in 1922 was repeated. The results of these experiments form the basis for the following report.

The help and patience of personnel from the Yukon Archives, Hudson's Bay Arohives, and Publio Archives of Canada, partioularly Bob Armstrong, the arohivist in charge of Fisheries documents, is gratefully acknowledged. Interviews with Yukon residents: G.I. Cameron, Charles "Chappie ft Chapman, Silvester Jack, Dorothy Jackson, Elizabeth Nyman, Angela Sidney, George Simmons, Virginia Smarch, Dora Wedge and Ed Whjtehouse provided information that was otherwise not available. Julie Cruikshank suggested useful reference resouroes for Indian fishing information. Aileen Horler and Tim Osler offered suggestions during the embryonic stage of the study. Valuable editorial comments were provided by Gavin Johnston. Sandy Johnston provided ourrent information on the Canada/U.S. Yukon River salmon negotiations. The report was typed by Norma Felker, Sharilyn Gattie and Kelly Wilkinson. ii SUMMARY Prior to the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898, fishing in the Yukon was primarily done by indigenous peoples for subsistenoe. For a number of Indian bands, fish, and partioularly salmon, was the primary food souroe. Contaot with White furtraders initiated a ohange in the Indian lifestyle.

  • And Nomenclature. Introduction
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY SUMMAFtY OF REFERENCES TO MINERAL OCCURRENCES (OTHER THAN MINERAL FUELS AND CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS) IN THE SUMDUM AND TAKU RIVER QUADRANGLES, ALASKA BY Edward H. Cobb Open-File Report 78-698 1978 This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Geological Survey standards and nomenclature. Introduction These summaries of references are designed to aid in library research on metallic and nonmetallic (other than mineral fuels and construction materials) mineral occurrences in the Sumdurn and Taku River quadrangles, Alaska. All references to reports of the Geological Survey, to mst reports of the U.S. Bureau of Mines, and to most reports of the State of ALaska Division of GeoLogical and Geophysical Surveys and its predecessor State and Territorial agencies released before May 1, 1978, are summar- ized. Certain, mainly statistical, reports such as the annual Minerals Yearbook of the U.S. Bureau of Mines and most biennial and annual reports of the State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys and its prececessor State and Territorial agencies are not included. This report is divided into three parts: a section made up of sum- maries of references arranged alphabetically first by quadrangle and second by occuxrence name; a section that Lists synonyms for names in the first section, claim names, and the names of operators and owners of mines and prospects; and a section that lists, by author, all references stmrmarized in the first section.

    SALMON-TAGGING EXPERIMENTS IN ALASKA, 1927 AND 1928 1 ~ By WILLIS H. RICH, Ph. D., In charge, Pacific Coast Fishery Investigations FREDERICK G. MORTON, Warden, :Alaska Fisheries Service U. S. Bureau of Fisheries ~ CONTENTS Page l'age Introduction _ 1 Southeastern Alaska, 1927-Continued. Southeastern Alaska, 1927 _ 2 Cape Decision _ 15 Icy StraiL _ 4 Clarence Strait- _ 17 Chatham Strait- _ 7 Conclusions _ 18 Frederick Sound _ 10 Uganik Bay, 1927 _ 18 Stephens Passage _ 13 Nicholaski Spit, 1928 _ 21 Sumner Strait _ 13 INTRODUCTION The series of salmon-tagging experiments in Alaska, which was begun in 1922, was continued during the two years covered by this report. In 1927 a number of ex­ periments were conducted in southeastern Alaska and one in Uganik Bay, Kodiak Island. In 1928 an experiment was carried out at Nicholaski Spit on the Alaska Peninsula. The experiments in southeastern Alaska were designed to fill in some of the gaps in the information that had been secured from previous experiments in thig district. The other experiments were designed to settle specific questions that had arisen in connection with the administration of the fisheries. .\lthough many details of the salmon migrations yet remain to be discovered, it is our opinion that the general features are now well enough known so that there is little need to continue general tagging experiments of the nature of those performed in southeastern Alaska in 1924 to 1927. It is planned, therefore, to use the method of tagging in the future only in connection with specific problems, such as those at Uganik Bay and Nicholaski Spit, which are covered by this report.

(Bob) Hakala Visitor Information Service Illustrations by Ann Pritchard Surveys and Maps U.S.D.A. Forest Service Juneau, Alaska TO OUR VISITORS The messages in this booklet have been heard by thousands of travelers to Southeast Alaska. They were prepared originally as tape recordings to be broadcast by means of message repeater systems on board the Alaska State ferries and commercial cruise vessels plying the Alaska waters of the Inside Passage. Public interest caused us to publish them in this form so they would be available to anyone on ships traveling through the Tongass country. The U.S.D.A. Forest Service, in cooperation with the State of Alaska, has developed the interpretive program for the Alaska Marine Highway (Inside Passage) because, as one of the messages says, "... most of the landward view is National Forest. The Forest Service and the State of Alaska share the objective of providing factual, meaning­ ful information which adds understanding and pride in Alaska and the National Forests within its boundaries."

The lesson can be used in units on western expansion, on late 19th- and early 20th-century commerce, and on urban history. It notes that Skagway (located about 100 miles north of Juneau) was established as a result of an 1897 gold strike which began in the Klondike region of Canada's Yukon Territory, and it points out that even though Skagway's "boomtown" era lasted only briefly, it remains alive in
