May 1935

This early spring low oblique image shows the Eklutna River flowing from lower left to center of the photo and bending back to the left. The river is open with snowbanks on shore along both banks. A patch of trees on both sides of the river is apparent with a large muskeg at right middle ground. Heavy forest forms the background beyond the muskeg. At water level on the river bend is a narrow foot bridge appearing very temporary. A person can be seen on the bridge.
