The price of gold began to rise and the company's fortunes rose with it. However, it became clear that mining was a seasonal business, and so 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. Boats were added to transport divers, and outboards to power the boats. Snowmobiles were a key addition in keeping the company busy in the winter months.

AMDS Today - Sales, Service, & Shipping Facilities

So it continued over the years, and as sales have grown, the staff and facilities have expanded to fill the customer's needs. AMDS has become what is now Alaska's premier supplier of outdoor power equipment. 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.

Dudley and Steve were also quick to recognize the benefits the internet would offer not only their customers in Alaska but those in other states as well. The www.akmining.com website was established in 1998, making it one of the older existing websites on the internet. The site concentrates on providing useful information. The www.akmining.net website was added later as a dedicated online store.

In 2010 another step was taken in the evolution of the company. Dudley and Steve transitioned the company to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Alaska Mining & Diving Supply, Inc. is now an employee owned company!
