[Photo of a snow-caked log being sectioned at a sawmill]

1972-01-26

At the log deck of a sawmill, an industrial sized circular saw mounted on a crossbeam makes a cut into a broad section of a felled tree from above. The top of the log section is partially squared off, showing that timbers have already been cut from it. The bark on the exterior of the log section is caked with snow. Sawdust flies from the running circular saw and litters the surface of the log deck in large piles. Stacks of lumber can be seen behind the log section. Distant trees under an overcast sky can be seen in the background. Mighty Mite is a manufacturer of power tools.

Masking tape caption on photo reads "H-1 26/1/72". Label on circular saw reads "Mighty Mite".
