While Hazelton is now served by a transcontinental railway and is on a' main arterial motor highway reachingsouth to Mexico, and now orojected north to Alaska, its strategic situation at the junction of the Bulkley and Skeena Rivers originally brought the town prominently into the world's picture. In 1865, as the head of navigation on the Skeena River, Hazelton was chosen as the distributing point for supplies and material used In the construction of the overland telegraph line proposed to link America with Europe via the Bering Sea. It was at Hazelton in July, 1866, that Col. Charles S. Bulkley of the United States Army Corps, received word of the successful laying and operation of the Atlantic cable, and the building of the overland telegraphs was abandoned.
