General NotesA view of a Native American encampment, identified as being at Cayuse Station on the Umatilla Indian Reservation on July 4, 1909. The foreground of the photo shows grass with some branches lying on it. To the right is a long trench, behind which can be seen eight tipis. In the middle ground a trail bisects the encampment. Beyond it are a tent, and at least four more canvas tipis and the skeleton of another. On the trail at the far right is a buggy. A number of horses, some with saddlebags, are at the side of the trail. Beyond the skeleton tipi is another group of horses, and a person with his back to the camera, who may be wearing a pack or may be a woman with an infant in a cradleboard. Farther in the background another figure stands in front of more horses. Standing on the trail to the left, in front of a tipi, is a man wearing a broad-brimmed hat and a blanket and trousers. He also has his back to the camera. Behind the encampment runs a row of deciduous trees. It looks as though there may be a wooden structure behind the trees. A low mountain range is in the background.
TCI NotesAn outside photograph of a large number of canvas tipis with horses in the middle of an unidentified campsite. This campsite has a number of different kinds of canvas tipis. There are four long tents and nine tipis in this camp site. Can see there are two tipi frames: one regular and a long tent frame. There are two canvas box tents in this photograph. In the middle of the photograph and on the side of a road are a number of horses tied up next to a frame of a tipi. Some of the horses have packs on as if they were moving out of camp. In the background is a row of cottonwood trees in front of the camp site. An unidentified man is standing next to a long tent in the left side of the photograph and he is wearing a wool blanket around his shoulders and a hat.
