History

Established in 1998.

Alaska Mining & Diving Supply was founded in Anchorage, Alaska by Dudley Benesch and Steve Herschbach. Dudley and Steve started the company while still in high school because of a shared interest in gold prospecting. The business began as a supplier of gold dredges and related diving equipment, hence the company name.

As it became clear that mining was a seasonal business, the company added product lines. These product lines evolved naturally from the original mining and diving concept. Woodstoves were added to heat the miner’s cabin. Chainsaws were added to fill the woodstove, etc. The product lines are unique and comprehensive. While many of the products fill recreational needs, they are also critical to life in rural Alaska, and so the company has become expert in supplying Alaska’s remote towns and villages.

We are a nationally acclaimed Platinum Ski-​Doo dealer and an Employee-​owned business.
