Black Rapids Roadhouse : ウィキペディア英語版 | Black Rapids Roadhouse
The Black Rapids Roadhouse is a historic Alaskan structure along the Richardson Highway in east-central Alaska. It was built in 1902.〔Sherry Simpson. ("Roadhouse" ). Alaska magazine.〕〔(The Rapids Roadhouse: History )〕〔Michael Parrish. ("Finding Gold Rush tales and roadhouse comforts on the Richardson Highway" ). Los Angeles Times.〕 Construction of the Alaska Railroad led to a decline in the 1920s, but the original roadhouse continued to operate until 1993. A new, modern lodge was built near the roadhouse in 2001 and the original building is preserved as a historical curiosity and tourist attraction. ==Black Rapids Glacier== Black Rapids Roadhouse is across the Delta River from the Black Rapids Glacier. For three months in 1937 the Black Rapids Glacier made national news by advancing across the valley at the rate of a mile a month-it was known as the "galloping glacier." The long glacier has since retreated, but the moraine can still be seen from Richardson Highway pullout.
