WWW.LASTCHANCEALASKA.COMChallenging times created the extraordinary morning of May 8, 1936. An old Ford auto pulled away from a Mid New Jersey town with an eager, would-be prospector, a black and white canine companion, a camera and a 30.30 high powered riffle. Douglas was headed to Alaska to search for gold. Repeat photography in 1999-2002 follows this northeasterner in Last Chance Alaska, as he crosses the United States, boards the S. S. Yukon in Seattle, WA., docks in Valdez and searches for gold through the interior of Alaska in 1935-36. His journey culminated in the Matanuska Valley with the infamous Matanuska Colonists during their second summer of survival. Gold was not found in his pan in spite of fervent attempts around the interior canyons, creeks and valleys of Alaska. However, he did leave behind a notable trail of photographs for all adventurous spirits to follow. A captivating narrative accompanies 50 repeat photos, 5 maps, 6 illustrations and a photo documented hike to an old gold mining cabin in the Ahtell Creek Valley in the summer of 2000.
