Transcribed Notes: Transcribed from photo sleeve: "Arivada Ferry, 1916-1920. This ferry was owned by Jim Cashman and operated by Pop Emery (standing, in picture). Originally located at the upper end of Cottonwood Island, a few miles below where the Cottonwood Cove Resort is located, it was later moved due to lack of business to TriState, Nevada, where it served for a short time between the Katherine Mine in Arizona and the TriState Mine in Nevada. Its main purpose here was to provide a way for Arizonans to get to Nevada where prohibition laws were not strictly enforced."
