Photograph of two men bent over a grave in the desert, [s.d.]. Two young men can be seen on either side of a grave at center. They wear long sleeved shirts, pants, and knee-high boots. The man at left is placing a plant and rocks on top of the grave, while the man at right holds a rifle and appears to be arranging rocks on top of the grave. A shovel is visible on top of the grave, while desert bushes can be seen at left and right. Mountains are visible in the background.
