Photograph of a First Nations coastal village, taken from behind a house, looking out towards the water and some close-by small islands. To the right of the house are lines of laundry hanging on lines; to the left some large corner posts of a long house. (Looks like possibly the same village as #1999.001.969, with the siding and roof removed from the long house).
