Description
Photograph of a road running along the base of a cliff in Topanga Canyon, ca.1915. A steep cliff occupies half of the image, from the center to the left. It is rocky and has several small shrubs and bushes growing near the top. A narrow dirt road is visible curving along the foot of the cliff. At center, a small wooden fence serves as a guardrail near the side of the road. In the distance at right, more tree-covered hills and cliffs are visible.
