A barge that got caught in last fall's early freeze-up has traveled about 170 river miles down the Kuskokwim after dislodging from the ice when the river broke up at Georgetown on May 8.
. One has dislodged and become a free-floating ghost barge, winding down the Kuskokwim River. It’s been stuck at the Macivik Slough, just below Tuluksak, since May 10.
“It seems like it shifted a little bit forward. The front area was lower than the back,” Phillips said. “The likelihood of it getting out the mouth is very, very, very small. It’ll go aground somewhere. Probably even before, I’m gonna say, Napakiak. Yeah. That would be my guess. Somewhere down there, somewhere probably around Oscarville,” Long said.
“We have our own tugboats and different friends that would help find it. People kind of on standby with fishing boats,” Long said.
