Description:
Using a dog team to bring the canoes up from the mouth of the Seventymile River, where they would be in danger from Yukon River ice during spring break-up. The next day the Seventymile River broke, taking out all the snow and ice pictured here. It was followed a day later by the Yukon River breaking up.
Listen to Brad Snow talk about the photo.
