U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Law Enforcement Agents Investigating Illegally Killed Caribou in Alaska in 1949

Two men in the middle distance, just right of center, moving a wooden-framed sledge through a snow-covered landscape; one man is in front, pulling the sledge, while the other man is in back, pushing it. The tail section and part of a wing tip of an airplane protrudes in to the frame from the left. Evergreen trees line the horizon.
