The rugged past and fragile future of Alaska’s roadhouses Bailey Berg © Photograph by Kyle Johnson Inside the dining area of The Talkeetna Roadhouse. The open doorway leads to the cafe section of the Roadhouse. When Annie Hopper first saw the Black Rapids Roadhouse in the late 1990s, the 117-year-old log structure was a wreck of rotting timber with a dilapidated sod roof open to the sky. The series of connected cabins had been abandoned for nearly a decade along the Richardson Highway, the wild corridor between Valdez and Fairbanks, Alaska. But for much of the 20th century, the roadhouse had served meals to hungry miners and rented bunks to tired dog-sled drivers.
