WIL (G)-072

Eight men and women pose at the log steps of the Cloud Cap Inn, built on Mt. Hood, Oregon, at an elevation of 6,000 feet. The Inn was built in 1889 using amabilis firs and given its name by Nannie Wood, wife of Col. C.E.S. Wood. Guests had to travel via railroad to Hood River, and then be transported via stagecoach high up the mountain, a ride that took several hours. By the time of this photograph, the Cloud Cap Inn was only operating during the spring and summer due to the 60 feet of snow falling during winters. It is on the Oregon Register of Historic Places. Photograph c. 1907.

African Queen (Steamer) (Tacoma-made) - 2

Back of Photo:
Steam escaped from the broken pipes on the coal-fired engine of the African Queen after she broke down during a news media cruise of Seattle's Lake Union Monday morning. Damage to the 76-year-old African steamer of movie fame evidently came during a January visit to the mid-west during sub-zero cold spell. The tour continued via a tow. The boat will be on display at the Big Tacoma Boat Show this week. The steam pressure valve indicated zero pressure and the boat whistles remained silent because of the broken pipes.
