Photograph reportedly circa 1920 with nine men wearing ice skates posing on a frozen river, probably the Blackfoot River. Most of the skaters are wearing ties or formal coats. Other skaters are visible further out on the river and the county bridge and Western Lumber Co. mill buildings are visible in background. Overlaid on left lower corner, obscuring Chester's skates is the corner of what appears to be an envelope that reads Kennedy with a 25-starred American Flag stamp to the right. Photo caption reads: Left to right: 1. Chester Lien. 2. Fred (Toughy) LaForge. 3. Wes Fowler. 4. ? Weimer. 5. Charley Kennedy 6. ? 7. Allard Crabtree 8. Jim Violette. 9. Ben Magnusson.
