Ketchikan
Ketchikan has traditionally been a fishing town, and is still
the salmon capitol of the world. This sets it apart from places
like Skagway, which were made famous by the early and limited
gold rush and mining boom. Unlike the old time prospectors, the
fishing fleets are still here, and fishing captains are still
able to make, or lose, a fortune every season. Ketchikan is also
known for its red light district - Creek Street. Creek Street
got its name due to the fact that it was a boardwalk which went
around, and sometimes over, one of the creeks up which the
salmon come here to spawn. Since this was a street full of
brothels, locals used to joke that both the fish and the
fishermen went up Creek Street to spawn. |
