Pioneer Liquors in Downtown Hope, Alaska

I think it is the only liquor store in the old gold mining town. You can get an education just looking around out side and in and talking with the charming young sales lady. All it takes is to ask a few questions and she will do the talking! Very interesting! You might find out where gold is being mined and you can watch or maybe you can do it yourself and become RICH ! - Milt Inman

The Gold Nugget is what we all are looking for with a metal detector, sluice, gold pan or just walking the river bank with your eyes tuned to see something Yellow!! This nugget is raw gold as it was found in a river bed and changed to a work of art to adorn a beautiful ladies person. - Milt Inman

Stone Sheep come down from the mountain looking for a taste of salt that was spread on the roads to melt the ice from the winter before. This sheep is still wearing his warm winter coat. This sheep was seen on the Alaska Highway in British Columbia, Canada. - Milt Inman

This old army tank was parked in front of a cabin out side of town. It looked to me that it was used to pull equipment to the back country maybe for building a cabin or gold prospecting or hunting and trapping. It should make a good go-anywhere machine. Milt Inman

One of the things that needed doing was to put new boards on shed the wall to help keep the cold drafts from the North Pole out of the outhouse!! As you notice four workers and seven “Bossing” the job. I think one of the “Lookers” works for the road crew because they have been known to lean on a shovel sometimes. What do you think? - Milt Inman

Sugar maple trees and Mother Nature give us some of the most beautiful fall colors. As the days get shorter the many hardwood trees each with their own beautiful unique tints of color, signals us that it is time to think about getting things done before the Snow Flies. - Milt Inman

Maine Fish and Wildlife used this trap to catch this beaver alive and transport it to a new home. The beaver was making a dam in front of a small bridge, this in turn will raise the water level and wash out the road and make it impassable. Sometimes the beaver come back and start work on his dam again. That means it will be trapped once more and have a longer ride to a new work location for him or her. - Milt Inman

Smoking salmon always draws a crowd when it is ready to be taken out of the smoker. They want to try the fish smoked with the secret “marinade” that the fisherman has been bragging about to anyone who will listen! - Milt Inman

You can make out two buildings on the far side of the bay down close to the water. They are part of one of the first places that gold was found in Alaska. They were named Hope And Sunrise . They are connected to the world now by a hot top highway.
