LOOK BACK: How loggers communicated in the Alberni Valley

A logger stands using a field telephone, which is enclosed in a wooden shelf that has been mounted on a large, fallen tree. Cut lumber and wire is strewn about on the ground surrounding the logger. The photo was taken at Franklin River, circa 1940.
