Description
Photograph of a view of West Portal, the town built to house the workmen for the Moffat Tunnel, Colorado, copied August 20, 1928. A man in a thick jacket and hat walks with his head down at center with a pile of dark rocks in the foreground to the right of him and the town behind him. The rocks are piled against the window of a small, flat-roofed structure on the right. Beyond that structure a dirt road leads through the wooden homes which stand taller than the first structure and display sloped roofs. Trees blanket the hills at the back edge of the town.
