Galena Rebuilding After Flood

It’s been nearly a month since an ice choked Yukon River overflowed its banks and flooded Galena.  The ice bergs have melted and the river looks docile, but many people remain displaced by what it did.  Most flood refugees are living outside the village, but as KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, more and more are coming back to rebuild their lives.

Dan has been in public radio news in Alaska since 1993. He’s worked as a reporter, newscaster and talk show host at stations in McGrath, Valdez and Fairbanks. Dan’s experience includes coverage of a wide range of topics, from wolf control to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and dog mushing.
