Description
Photograph of a drawing of Indians portaging a canoe, [s.d.]. A line of male Indians carry a large ornamented canoe over their shoulders on the shore. A man, presumably a leader of some kind, dons a thick cape and holds a double-edged paddle, at left. Behind him, other Indians dot the shoreline in various states of activity. The ocean sits in the distance, with the Cliffside touching the water in the background. Drawn by W. Langdon Kihm in '46.
