Scope and content
ca. 1920. Stack of wattles, or webbed sections, which form the screen of a salmon weir preventing the egress of the salmon. These were woven by the women, and to save labor, were laid by at the end of the fishing season while the main structure was left in the river. This photo was taken on the White River near the southwest corner of the Muckleshoot reservation circa 1920. (Caption from note typed on back of photo) (Photo donated by Arthur Ballard) TPL-8037
