Notes:
View from Upper Arrow Lake of Arrowhead Lumber Co. mill and Arrowhead townsite, before 1906. Notes from Bruce Rohn: 'It didn't close in 1906, but changed hands...Arrowhead Lumber Co. to Lamb-Watson and then became known as Arrow Lakes Lumber Co. After the big fire at Galena Bay (1910-11) which burned a lot of their timber and part of their logging railroad, the mill declined big time. Forest Mills eventually took over what was left.'
