Distant view of a bee yard, including dozens of hive boxes set in rows across the landscape with a one-story building in the middle related to the beekeeping business of the Sierra Madre Villa hotel in San Gabriel (now Sierra Madre, California). In the foreground is a low hill covered in scrub brush, and the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains are in the background. Title derived from Watkins New Series stereo #4393. Date devised by cataloger; Watkins made two trips to Southern California, in 1877 and 1880. Transcribed from back of photo: "Abbott Kinney's Sierra Madre."
