Inspector George Parka Heads North for Alaska Adventures
Parke, known as Parka the Inspector to North miners, is a government mineral surveyor who will travel five to six thousand miles in 1914. He explores from Ketchikan to Kotzebue, often on foot, living in a blanket in the field, and reports on copper and nickel strikes as winter approaches. He is a 20 year old Colorado School of Mines graduate, six feet tall, and famed as a keen listener who spins campfire yarns.
