Neil & Margaret Miller

Miller Collection

1936

This photo shows Colonist Margaret Miller seated in foreground next to a large pile of split firewood. She is dressed in white pants and shirt with rolled up sleeves, apparently enjoying a warm spring day. Next to her at right is a double bit axe imbedded in a wood block. Visible in middle ground at right are low rolling hills cleared of trees and covered with dead grass, burned stumps and fallen snags. A portion of raised level bench land appears in background covered with standing heavy forest and defined by a thin strip of remaining spring snow.
