Airman Prest's perilous dash toward Siberia via Polar Bear
Prest, California aviator, landed at Anaconda after a 1 hour 20 minute flight from Dillon despite headwind. He described crossing Montana mountains and Nevada Utah heat, and outlined a near 290 mile non stop leg from Hazelton to Telegraph Creek before heading toward Calgary Edmonton and finally Nome to reach Siberia. The journey, supported by L M Bach, aims to test Arctic air travel with a plan to refuel at military stations and possibly secure a freight aircraft contract for mine supply runs.
