Photograph of an aerial of Kitamaat Village. View is looking at the south side. The Robinson property is at the far right, as well as the dock in front of it. On the left side are other homes, as well as the village wharf. Forest in background. In far back on the right is the transmission line clearing. There is some snow on it.
From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.
