Alaska Road Commission

Cookman Collection #1

June 8, 1939

This summer image shows the gravel road crossing the photo in foreground with a truck stopped on it. The truck has two sets of dual wheels in back and is loaded with five heavy bridge timbers tied to each side, extending well in front of the side doors to several feet behind the rear end. From this view it is not apparent how the driver might gain access to the cab to drive the truck. Heavy forest fills the backdrop with large trees obvious just beyond the truck.
