EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in the early 1900s along the Alaska Central Railroad (A.C.R.R.) near the Show River, now known as the Snow River. The image displays a group of frontiersmen proudly posing with their kills, a testament to their survival skills and the harsh realities of life on the Alaskan frontier. The men, dressed in heavy coats and hats, stand with an impressive array of animal hides and skins, including those of brown bears. They hold rifles and guns, their faces etched with determination and a sense of accomplishment. The scene exudes a sense of heritage and history, with the backdrop of the rugged wilderness and the railway line adding to the sense of isolation and the meeting of the frontier. This image offers a glimpse into the past, a time when hunting and trapping were essential for survival in the harsh Alaskan climate. The pride and sense of community among these men are palpable, as they share in the success of their hunt and the bounty it provided. The photograph is a reminder of the rich history of the United States, particularly in the North American region, and the resilience and resourcefulness of those who settled there.
