Description
Photograph of Rock Camp on the Bass Trail, Grand Canyon, ca.1900-1930. About three men and their burros make camp near a rocky overhang in the foreground below. The site is littered with camping gear such as crates, blankets, cooking utensils, etc. A crude stick ladder leans against the overhang. The sheer rock face rises up on three sides. Further up, steep rocky slopes join with massive rock formations shaped by erosion to form the canyon walls towering above.
