1975.58.8Description
Photo of ten people (at least five are women) standing and skating on the frozen aqueduct. Three people appear to be holding "hockey" sticks.
The accession paperwork says this was taken in 1916 when the aqueduct froze over, but the caption from the book "Mountains to Desert" identifies this a December 1913 skating party on the newly completed Los Angeles Aqueduct (near Manzanar).
Another photo in the museum gives the date as Christmas 1911.Collection
