'''Klondike Caverns''' was the [[ma:Starfleet|Starfleet]] facility established on [[Norala IV]] after the [[ma:UFP|Federation]] incursion into the [[Freeworlds Region]] of the [[Par'tha Expanse]]. | '''Klondike Caverns''' was the [[ma:Starfleet|Starfleet]] facility established on [[Norala IV]] after the [[ma:UFP|Federation]] incursion into the [[Freeworlds Region]] of the [[Par'tha Expanse]]. | ||
After their successful rebuilding of the [[Chon]] defense outpost into [[Deep Space 26]], [[ma:Admiral|Admiral]] [[Krieger, Jacob Russell|Krieger]] sent many expedition teams throughout the [[Freeworlds Region]] to scout locations for a ground installation. Scouts discovered the icy world of [[Norala IV]]. While not a first choice for a supply base, the fact that it was uninhabited by sentient beings, and had an abundance of raw materials which could be mined and refined, both on the planet and in the nearby [[Noralan Asteroid Field|asteroid belt]]. The scouts recommended the world to Admiral Krieger, who agreed to their proposal. | After their successful rebuilding of the [[Chon]] defense outpost into [[Deep Space 26]], [[ma:Admiral (Starfleet)|Admiral]] [[Krieger, Jacob Russell|Krieger]] sent many expedition teams throughout the [[Freeworlds Region]] to scout locations for a ground installation.

[[ma:Lieutenant commander|Lt. Cmdr.]] [[Wembly, Kenneth|Wembly]], head of the [[Starfleet Corps of Engineers, Starbase 118 Division|Starfleet Corps of Engineers]] on [[Deep Space 26|DS26]], was sold the location of a series of caves by an old smuggler. Wembly was then dispatched to Norala IV to plan and oversee the construction of what would become Klondike Caverns. Geothermal analysis indicated that the best location for the base was on the northern edge on the only livable temperate band near the equator. Wembly's engineers built the base under the mountains of the [[Granger Range]] south of the [[Blethim Ice Flow]] and reinforced the natural ice caverns beneath the surface of Norala IV to serve as pathways. | [[ma:Lieutenant commander|Lt.
