| Title | Dewatering Frozen Columbia River |
| Description | Dam and diversion works viewed from the upstream side. Upstream cross-river cofferdam appears on the right, and the entrance to the diversion channel on the left. The rough surface of ice is caused by the piling up of floe-ice. The two barges, carrying pumps to supply water for cooling concrete, are on the far side of the diversion channel. Diversion activities viewed from the upstream angle. |
