Scope and content

Bill Clark's Written Caption on Back of Photo: "CF-AWR Photo taken at Glacier or Brintnell Lake, S. Nahanni area, 100 miles above Virginia Falls in 1935. This is one of the huge single engine Bellanca planes left as only a few were built. Cathedral Mountain in background. Stan Macmillan pilot. (for Mackenzie Air Service) Wm (Bill) Clark"

Photographer: unknown

WDA's Comments: This photo was taken by someone on Harry Snyder's 1935 expedition to the South Nahanni country but how Bill Clark obtained this copy is unknown. Judging from this photo and several interviews, Snyder had to have the biggest and best of everything. He thought himself sufficiently important that he unsuccessfully attempted to get today's Ragged Range named the Snyder Mountains. Thankfully, he failed. (I know, I am not supposed to editorialize but sometimes I can't help myself.)
