Cookman Collection #1

March 15, 1940

This is a vertical image taken from river-bed level showing a frozen pool and gravel in near foreground and one of the concrete piers with armor rock piled around and near the footing. Atop the pier a section of the bridge deck is visible with a dump truck poised between the girders to dump its load of rock over the side to add to the accumulation below. A man is visible standing next to the truck.
