Title	Main Street, Sheep Camp, Alaska
Description	Title taken from caption. "9210 -- (15) In this view we are offered a more comprehensive idea of that section of the canyon in which Sheep Camp was located. Every portion of available space is occupied by tents, stores, restaurants, warehouses and caches. In the foreground a dog is struggling up the slope while the driver assists in tugging at the load. In the rear follow in single file a line of weary men bearing their heavy packs. There is nothing here to indicate permanency or comfort, but on the contrary, everything suggests a temporary abiding place and an earnest, persevering endeavor to reach some coveted goal beyond."
