Title Engineer recruitment program--trash gatehring site
Creator United States. Army. Corps of Engineers.
Date 1964
Description A fair-sized acreage of logs, trash, and shore debris marks the 1964 spring runoff hazard at Ice Harbor Dam on the Snake River. The trash and debris are slowly worked towards the disposal tram which carries the debris to high ground for burning. In with this trash are some million or so board feet of commercial saw logs swept downstream when a Clearwater River log boom broke during high water. The private tug in this picture is attempting to pick out these logs for salvage.
