Black and white image. Two scows with large, square sails, floating on the Yukon River, carrying passengers and supplies. There are mountains in the background, along the shore lines. Miners frequently took boats from Bennett, British Columbia to the mine fields near Dawson in the Yukon Territory.
Black and white image. Two women and one man stand on a boat looking out into a glacier-filled landscape. The people stand near the boat's grated metal railing. The women are dressed in hats and long coats with large fur collars. The man is dressed in a jacket with a raised collar, trousers, and a hat that appears to be part of a military, or shipping uniform. A large metal hook attached to metal chain links are suspended by cables on the left side of the image. The hook is attached to a thick piece of rope. A wooden ramp draped with rope is visible next to the boat's railing. In the background of the image ice floats on the surface of the water in front of large, jagged glaciers.
