Description
Four astronomers relaxing on Mount Wilson (Left to Right): Hills; Joseph Larmor; Aloysius Laurence Cortie; and Hills. Photo mounted in an album. The four men are seated on what appears to be wooden logs propped up with wooden sawhorses. All of the men are wearing suits, and are either wearing or holding their hats. Behind them, in the background, several vehicles can be seen. Some trees are also seen in the background.
