Cookman Collection #1

April 28, 1928

This rather dark image shows a log stringer bridge crossing a moderate sized stream. The low level view shows the stream water at lower left, the bridge bottom stringer running slightly diagonally across the photo with the ends of the decking logs in view and the guard logs on top. Fence posts run parallel to the bridge behind it with a flat field in middle ground beyond. A rounded hill is in near middle ground exhibiting heavy spruce forest with a large section cleared. Patches of snow are evident in the field and in immediate foreground.
