Cookman Collection #1

December 5, 1931

A winter scene of the stream in foreground with an oblique view of the bridge under construction as seen from upstream. Heavy log stringers span the water supported by log cribbing on both sides of the stream. A pile of logs in near middle ground on the far bank await placement across the stringers to form the running surface. A tent frame is visible at far right in background. Heavy mixed spruce forest forms the backdrop and significant snow covers all.
