Let them hear from you to Save Wolf Creek

The land that Wolf Creek Boatworks sits on has been slatted for logging by the State Mental Health Trust. Of the 1544 acres set to be logged, approximately 7 acres surround the historic boathouse, powerhouse, cabin, and boat grid. These 7 acres being carved out of the exchange will ensure the preservation of the entire historic site.

 

Although they have been offered financial compensation for the homesteaded 7 acres, or an exchange for 7 acres further down the beach (owned by Sam Romey) to continue occupying the 7 acre parcel, Mental Health has been unwilling to waiver on their decision to allow for the removal of the buildings, seawall, dock, pilings, and equipment.... while they log the entire mountainside. 

Senator Lisa Murkowski CAN stop the process and allow Wolf Creek Boatworks to purchase or land exchange the small parcel. Please, make your SE Alaskan voices heard to those in DC!

 

Tell them to SPARE the Wolf Creek Boatworks parcel and allow it to continue being a part of our local history and community. 

Historic Wolf Creek has been my home and labor of love for 29 years. Since 2015 I have been working to save the historic site but the State of Alaska Mental Health Trust has no interest in a equitable, fair solution or interest in protecting the site. They have refused to sell the land or provide any of the protections, preventive or preservation measures they agreed to in the land swap. Without safeguards in place this historic landmark is in peril. Without constant investment of funds, equipment, labor and tools the buildings will eventually decay and be no more.

Please call, email, text, or Facebook message

your political representatives to ask for the Wolf Creek Boatworks to be protected.
