Mining on the Inmachuk River Prospecting Winter Yields Big Payoffs
The Inmachuk area yields hundreds of thousands in gold dust over four years with major operations by J. M. Davidson and Andrew J. Stone. Turbulent winter conditions froze the river boosting early groundwork and plans for a large ditch system to control water flow and expand mining. Four principal operators expect about 150,900 in winter cleanups with figures from Dick Hoogendorn Louis Banks David Ison Charles Ehrends Milroy Calaine Howe and Prichard. The Inmachuk remains a winter camp with heavy equipment and multiple claims including Homestake and Dashley, awaiting better conditions and the new ditch.
