A color photo of Chief Rhonda Pitka's grandmother's fish camp, which has been abandoned for four years due to a lack of salmon on the Yukon River. Buildings are weather-beaten, some laying across the grass while small belongings are strewn on the ground. Boards and metal sheets lay askew beneath the deep green trees.
