Description

Photograph of a close-up view of mountain climbers examining Pre-Cambrian Rocks near Sierra Pelona Lookout, ca.1930. A group of women and men are standing on rock strata which appears to be Pre-Cambrian rocks. A man and a woman are visible, in the center foreground, sitting down while the rest seem to be surrounding them while looking towards the direction of the woman; she is holding a water canteen on her lap. On a lower ground, a field of vegetated hills fill in the backdrop.
