An early view of Fort Churchill, Nevada, [s.d.]

Description

Photograph of a stereograph of an early view of Fort Churchill, Nevada, [s.d.]. The fort consists of several independent, free-standing structures. Because of their dilapidated condition, several structures are lacking walls and most of them are lacking roofs. Arched doorways and small, rectangular windows can be seen along the walls of several of the structures. Spotted scrub grass covers the landscape in the foreground. Large mountains loom in the background.
