Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. A distant photograph, from left to right, of Harry Schmitz and Wilfrid Cline, Jr. standing in their camp which is set up among logs from an abandoned logging operation near the McCloud River. Harry Schmitz stands at left, in profile and facing right. He looks down to a pot sitting on the camp stove in front of him. Standing a few yards to the right, Wilfrid Cline stands to the left of a large log and to the right of the dining table. He looks to the camera. Cooking supplies and gear sit atop both the log to the left of Wilfred and on the table to the right of him. Another log lies on the ground and stretches behind Harry Schmitz. In the foreground, a car wheel peeks into the image along the lower left edge. A basket hangs from a stick propped upright between the camera and the camp, and to the right of and in front of Wilfrid Cline. Shrubs line the backside of the campsite. Tall pines stand in the background behind the shrubbery. Text from negative sleeve: 1035. Trinity County trip, 1917. McCloud river camp. [handwritten: check mark] 1. Left to right: Harry Schmitz.
