Description
Photograph of three men surveying a wire through a stream, ca.1930. To the left of center, a man stands knee deep in a stream of water while holding a wire with both hands. To the right, a second man stands on the bank holding the wire while looking down. A third man on the left kneels at the edge of the water while holding the wire and looking towards the other two men. The banks of the water are covered in rocks while the land in the background appears to be barren dirt.
