Description:
Brad Snow viewing ice blocks building up behind an ice jam upstream from the cabin site during break-up on the Nation River in 1975. Snow was concerned that an ice jam could cause water to flow through the woods and flood their cabin from behind. He describes the intensity of the ice jam, concerns about break-up, and the importance of this event in their lives at the time.
