Photograph, from left to right, of H. H. West, Frances West, Irene Schmitz, Elizabeth West and Albert Schmitz standing on the bank of a stream near Silver Lake and posing with dozens of fish. The group stands at center on a pebble-covered bank of a stream. H. H. West and Albert Schmitz bookend the group at far left and far right, respectively, and hold a line from which dozens of fish hang between them. The children stand behind the fish and look to the camera. A canoe lies on the shore behind the group. The stream flows behind them at right, curving to the left where it disappears behind the bank.
