| Description |
English: Three Arks for a log drive on Pine Creek, in Lycoming or Tioga County, Pennsylvania, USA. The left ark was for cooking and dining, the middle ark was the sleeping quarters, and the right ark was for the horses. The arks were built for just one log drive and then sold for their lumber. The line of the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo Railway can be seen on the eastern shore, and the mountainside behind it is nearly bare of trees from clearcutting
Français : Trois radeaux construits pour accompagner un flottage de bois sur la Pine Creek, dans le compté de Lycoming ou de Tioga, en Pennsylvanie, USA, peu avant 1905 (ou peut-être en 1908). Le radeau de gauche sert de cuisine et réfectoire, celui du milieu de chambre à coucher, et le troisième d'écurie flottante. Ces constructions ne serviront qu'à un seul voyage avant d'être vendues pour leur bois d'œuvre. La ligne de la côte de New Jersey, Pine Creek et Buffalo Railway peut être vu sur la rive orientale, et la montagne du fond est presque mise à nue par une coupe à blanc. on distingue la structure destinée à faire rouler les troncs jusqu'à l'eau . |
| Date | Taken before 1905 (or perhaps 1908) as the last log drive on Pine Creek was then. |
