Chatinika Lodge & Gold Dredge #3



We took a drive up to Chatinika 28 miles north of Fairbanks on the other side of the Cleary Summit. At least 70 million dollars in gold was taken out between 1926 and 1957. We ate breakfast at the lodge where the owner gave us a lesson in Fairbanks history and showed us a movie about the dredge.
