Journey Over Teslin Trail and Yukon Prospecting Report
The author recounts a two week trek from Glenora to Teslin with Mackenzie and Mann and Porters crews improving the trail. He notes weather favorable, scarce horse feed, and a final view that the Teslin to Teslin River route is now first rate. Reports from Teslin City describe fort activity, prices, and boats crewed for transport to Selkirk. The piece covers Hootalinqua travel by leaky rowboat, Nuns party observations, and Dawson Selkirk developments with insights from local merchants and soldiers.
