Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of the snow-covered Big Pines Boy Scout Camp. In the foreground, snow blankets the ground. At right, a cluster of footprints in the snow radiate outward in different directions. Beyond the footprints, piles of snow that appears to have been plowed or shoveled clutter the ground.

In the background, a couple of camp structures sit in the middle of the image at the base of a few hillsides covered in trees. Text from negative sleeve: 233 Big Pines Boy Scout Camp, winter 1934. Lined up at noon waiting for door to open to dining room. View of the camp among the trees in the hills. Tractor clearing the snow off Jackson Lake so scouts and others can skate.
