A woman stands next to a table holding a fillet of salmon ready for barbecuing. Another woman sits at the table preparing other fillets for cooking. Trees and blooming shrubs are visible in the background, as is a structure that may be an outhouse.
Many salmon at different points in the process of preparation lie on a long wooden table with a pile of wood to the left and a green garbage can to the right. One person tends to a fire in the background, while another prepares the salmon.
Image of a wooden building with a sign hanging from the front of it that says "Salmon for Survival." The building appears to be a place where salmon is processed, dried, and/or sold. It is located next to a creek or low lying river.
