Description
Photograph of a view of tracks carving a trail through the thick forest of trees in Santa Cruz County, ca.1900. A set of tracks emerge from the foreground and divide into two tracks that both run straight into through the woods. Tall, thick trees stand among short bushes on either side of the tracks. A pile of wood and a thin sign stand in the foreground on the right while a small, wooden structure can be seen on the left further down the tracks.
