Description

An Alaska Road Commission dump truck and tracked excavator shovel stand in a gravel pit in foreground of this summer image. The shovel is dumping a shovel load of fine textured gravel into the bed of the truck. The high bank of the pit behind the equipment forms the near middle ground backdrop. Two men are evident, one in the cab of the shovel operating the machine and the other standing on the shovel's track observing the loading of the truck.
