User Comments:
• I believe this image shows the wreck of the Pasadena further to the east of the North Entry. The Wenona was well up on the beach and intact. Her wreckage never extended far out into the lake, as appears in this photo. The photo is however, consistent with the other photo in your collection of the wreckage of the barge Pasadena, which wrecked nearby in 1906.
