Alaska Farm Life and Skagway Travel Echoes
The piece follows Wilma King Henderson and Robert Henderson on a Alaska acreage near Haines with five children, detailing farm tasks and local produce costs. It shifts to Skagway’s Klondike heritage, Soapy Smith lore, Liarsville, White Pass & Yukon rail, and 1898 trail memories. Also notes a 10 point bow deer bag by Dave Van Roekel near Cherokee.
