General NotesA Native American encampment, located in a clearing next to a stand of trees (deciduous without leaves and conifers), at the base of a hill or mountain. There are four tipis made of mats and canvas, and one larger tent structure, made of canvas. There are two wooden barns, one with a saddled horse next to it. There are several wagons, a segment of fence, and various wooden crates and sundries scattered about. One of the wagons is loaded with materials for another tipi, next to the beginning of a new wooden barn or shelter (posts, cross beam, grassy roof). At the far right edge of the photo is part of a wooden structure or dwelling.
TCI NotesAn outside photograph of a large campsite with a log cabin in the far back. There are three Tule mat tipis in this campsite and a long tent that is made of canvas. The first tipi in the left of the photograph is five layers of Tule mats and the second one is five also. In between the two tipis inside of the trees are unidentified objects. The canvas long tent is set up out in the open ground next to the tree line. Behind the long tent is a small barn with a horse saddled up in front of the barn. In front of the barn and behind the horse are a couple of wagons. Next to the barn is another Tule mat tipi which is four layers high. Behind the last tipi is a log cabin. In the right side of the photograph is part of a shed. The background is mixed cottonwood and pine trees. The hillside behind the trees is open and rocky.
