Photograph, from left to right, of Nina Meyers, Mertie West and Glen Velzy in the backyard of Glen Velzy's cabin as viewed from up a hill in Santa Anita Canyon. Looking down into the backyard, Nina Meyers and Mertie West pose in front of the cabin in the near distance at left. Glen Velzy sits in a chair to the right and works on some mending. Behind Nina and Mertie, the cabin stands in partial view. A tree stands behind Glen. Beyond the tree, a low stone wall stretches from behind the cabin and across the image where it extends out-of-frame on the right. Trees surround the property.
