Photograph of some wood plank streets intersecting in Metlakatla, Alaska. A wood plank walkway extends from the bottom edge, left-of-center, and into the distance, on an angle to the right. Another walkway running perpendicular to it, intersects it in the foreground at center. The horizontal walkway extends beyond the left and right frames. At the upper left intersection, a signboard and telephone pole stand. Trees, shrubbery and tall grasses line the walkways in the near distance. Further down, houses line the left side of the walkway as it stretches towards the horizon.
