This image is taken from behind a road grader being pulled by a cat tractor at right along a muddy section of new road, likely on Eklutna Flats. Two men sit on the tractor and a third stands on the grader. Considerable water and mud stand on the road. A line of turned muskeg extends to the left of the road which may be a drainage ditch. The railroad line and telegraph poles are visible at the base of a heavily forested mountainside at left middle ground.

Near Eklutna, Alaska
