*A trail
from
Sunrise City up Six-mile River
and south through
the canyon.
*
A winter trail from
Old Knik up the
Knik River then NE to the Copper
River.
*
A summer trail from
Old Knik up the
Matanuska River, passing
Palmer's store and King's house
to Millich Creek
and, via Hicks
Creek, Trail Lake and Nulchuk
Tyon Village, to the
Copper River (pretty much
the route of the present Glenn Highway.
*
A summer trail from
Grubstake Gulch
on Willow Creek over Hatcher
Pass and down to Palmer's
Upper House with a branch
leading to Vacilla's and
to Mellish House.
After
1912,
other much used trails had
developed northward from
Seward and out
from
Knik
to the east and west
(and various mines):
* Seward
Trail
(1905) from Eklutna, over Peter's
Creek, through
the mountains, down Crow
Creek and Glacier Creek, passed
Kern Creek, 20 Mile
Creek, Portage Creek and
up Placer River.
*
Watson Coal Trail, which
was later known as the Goodwin
Trail and which
was the first lap of the Iditarod
trail from Knik to Susitna
Station:
*
The Klondike and Boston
Co., Summer Trail along
the beach from Knik to
Cottonwood then towards the
mountains, passing between
Lake Lucille and Wasilla Lake to
Grubstake Gulch (now part
of Knik-Wasilla Road) with a
branch marked R.R. Trail,
to the Kashwitna River.
*
Carle Road (now Fishhook
Road) developed a little
later from Knik between Lake
Lucille and Wasilla
Lake to the gold fields of Hatcher
Pass.
*
Dalton Trail branched
of the Carle Road as it entered
the Little Susitna Canyon
and then ran east to the coal
mines.

Little bit about
myself:
I have lived in
Alaska for 69 years. I enjoy
helping people trace their
family roots, especially
their Alaskan roots. If
you need help with your family
tree,
drop me a line. I would be more
than happy to try and help, no charge.
