This is a musical depiction of the day of a lumberjack in the late 1800s during the great logging drives in Wisconsin.

It then transitions to "Waking the Camp" and develops to "Felling the Trees," a very dynamic segment. "The Ice Breaks" and "On the River" draw the composition to a serious conclusion. A most creative work. This is Robert W. Smith at his very best. (6:46)
