Photograph of the S. S. Baranoff sitting docked at a pier, as viewed form the deck of another ship in the Orca Inlet. The photographer's ship sits in the foreground along the bottom edge. Rigging cables stretch along the left edge. The tops of a couple of pick-up trucks are visible sitting a deck below the camera at center. Beyond the near ship, Orca Inlet stretches across the image. In the distance, the S. S. Baranoff sits docked to a pier in Cordova. The ship is anchored at center and is viewed at a slight angle from the side; it faces left. Behind and to the left of it, a pier stretches back to the shore where a group of several buildings stand. The shoreline stretches across the background and hills rise in the far distance.
