Description
Photograph of the view looking north down Bright Angel Trail, Grand Canyon, from the Gardens, ca.1900-1930. The narrow dirt trail is cut out of the side of the steep rocky slope. A few trees jut perilously out from the slope ahead. In the distance the canyon floor, walls, and rim are visible. Long shadows are cast from the right wall. A tall rock formation is visible in the distance at left.
