Description

This black and white photograph features the Sternberg camp on the Red Deer River after an early autumn snowstorm. The scow with the tent is attached to the outcropping next to the river, while the motor boat floats in the river next to the scow. Smoke is coming out of the stove pipe that comes through the tent's roof. A rowboat on its top sits above on a bank of the outcropping. Trees line both sides of the river and outcroppings are seen in the background. Handwriting is below the photograph.
