Photographer: presumably Bill Clark
WDA's Comments: This upriver trip was bringing in supplies to establish a big game hunting cabin in Deadmen Valley. They never did reach Deadmen Valley on this trip. Their concept was for a big game hunting resort at Nahanni Hotsprings (Kraus Hotsprings today) with a hunting cabin or cabins in Deadmen Valley The whole McCauley-Clark plan for the resort never came to fruition because the NWT Commissioner's office failed to grant them the necessary lease (see Clark Papers and interview).
Note that Clark misspelled McCauley's name in the caption above. Correspondence with NWT Commissioner's office has his name as J. H. McCauley (Clark Papers)
