Description: Home of Roy Erlandson of Ahmeek Street, Copper City, was not exactly safe to play around, as Spring waters flowed to the Citys low spot where home is located. When waters rose to this stage, Mr. Erlandson was taken to work on largest of Copper City Fuel Companys coal trucks which had backed into yard. This condition was far below the flood condition in the area two years ago when water reached the cellar windows. [View of rising waters around the home.]
