| First Built "Cook Shack" for Leroy Gold Mine, Glacier Bay, Alaska. |
Located at Ptarmigan Creek in Johns Hopkins Inlet, and built by the Parkers, this structure still stands (2007) at the site of the Leroy Mine. But it wasn't the first "on site" kitchen. Click for more information...
|
The very first structure used as a cook shack at the location of the Leroy Gold Mine in 1938 was a small, pre-constructed building hauled by Leslie and Abraham Parker by boat to the Ptarmigan Creek beach. It was called "The Boat House" and the first official "cook" was Mrs. Glen (Nell) Parker.
