EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the stern-wheeler Cochan on the Colorado River in 1890. The image, taken by an American photographer from the 19th century, showcases one of the last stern-wheelers navigating this iconic river. In this particular moment frozen in time, we witness the Cochan taking on wood fuel at Palo Verde. The upper deck of the vessel reflects off the calm waters below, creating a mesmerizing visual effect. This pleasure steamer served both as a means of transportation for passengers and cargo along the riverbanks of North America. Its spacious balcony provided ample space for travelers to enjoy their journey while admiring breathtaking views. The stern-wheeler's chimney releases plumes of smoke into the air as it propels forward with its paddleboat mechanism. With its distinctive funnel and steam-powered engine, this steamboat was a marvel of transportation during its time. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are transported back to an era when riverboats like Cochan were vital lifelines connecting communities along waterways across America. This image serves as a reminder of our rich maritime heritage and how these vessels played an integral role in shaping our nation's history.
