Description

This winter view looks west over a section of road crossing a portion of Eklutna Flats muskeg that is being "corduroyed" by laying down spruce trees to support the gravel fill of the roadbed. A cat tractor is visible at right middle ground with a man on it and three other men standing nearby. The location of "Reed" in the caption may have been a section house on the nearby railroad.
