A Load of Logs, Arrowhead, circa 1910

Four people stand on top of a tall stack of logs sitting on a crate attached to two horses. Three men stand to the left of the logs. A tree-clearing is in the background. The bottom of the photograph has text "A load of logs, Arrowhead, B.C."

Revelstoke Museum and Archives photograph 3810.

This photo shows what appears to be an impossible feat – two horses preparing to pull a huge load of logs. Horse logging was a way of life in the valleys of the Columbia River. This photograph was taken near Arrowhead circa 1910.
