Description
Black and white image of a fish wheel along the banks of the Columbia River. In the background are mountains and trees lining the riverbank. Several houses can be seen on the opposite shore. The fish wheel juts out from the riverbank in the foreground of the image. There is a wooden walkway leading out to the wheel and there appears to be a small fishing trawler docked to the side of it.
