It’s Wayback Wednesday brought to you by Cavalcade Color Lab! Today, boats, canoes and kayaks ply Huntsville’s lakes and rivers for pleasure, but at one time they were used for industry, too. In this 1920 photo, logs are being towed to a local mill. In Huntsville With Spirit and Resolve, Susan Pryke tells us that the last river drives on the Big East and Buck rivers were in 1936, although the Muskoka Wood Company continued towing logs around local lakes until 1945.
