EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of departure for Dr. Sutherland and his party as they prepare to leave Fairbanks, Alaska, bound for Kantishna between approximately 1900 and 1927. The scene is set against a backdrop of snow-covered buildings and houses, with the team of determined dogs and their musher standing ready at the front. The group, consisting of both men and women, don their warm clothing and gear up for the long journey ahead, with a direct gaze towards the camera that speaks of their unwavering determination and resilience. The meeting of frontiers is beautifully depicted in this image, with the modern buildings of Fairbanks contrasting the raw, untamed wilderness of the Alaskan landscape. The team of dogs, an essential mode of transportation during this era, are a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people who settled in this harsh climate. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and history of Alaska during the early 20th century, and serves as a fascinating glimpse into the daily lives of those who braved the harsh conditions to make a life in this remote and beautiful part of the world.
