1959-Ketchikan Pulp

Ward Cove (North of Ketchikan, Alaska)

A man and woman overlooking the 'Ketchikan Pulp Company' mill and log storage area at Ward Cove, Alaska in 1959.
Construction of the giant pulp mill was started in 1954 and completed late in 1955. Logs came in here via tugboat-towed water rafts.
Remote logging camps and operations supplied the logs to the water and rafted them for towing to the big mills.
