A man, possibly Buster Beck, in snowfield with a cross-cut felling saw, possibly near Fancy Pass. "A felling saw is generally less stiff than a bucking saw and the backside, as well as the cutting side, is usually curved inward. Felling saws are more often used to cut down standing trees, so the thinner, lighter design is easier to use without gravity holding the blade against the cut."

Two people standing at Fancy Pass in the snow.

Two hikers on Fancy Pass, no doubt one of the Beck boys and Don Knight, on a prospecting trip.
