Roy Lindsley and Al Kropf Erecting Stream Markers on Afognak Island, Alaska, 1949

Two men standing on a short rocky ledge on the left, overlooking the shore of a bay (photo is taken from a position along the shore). In front of them is a sign that reads "FISHING PROHIBITED". In the middle distance parked along the shoreline is a large propeller-driven float plane. The shoreline features a narrow area that is clear of vegetation with a densely wooded area immediate beyond it. The shore stretches along the horizon; the opposite shore can also be seen in the right background.
