Description
This black and white photograph captures a scene from Barnum Brown's camp at the mouth of Sand Creek. Trees, shrubbery, sticks, and fallen limbs surround the campsite. Four men sit on wooden folding chairs in a semicircle. One man is sitting in the shadows. Two men in the middle of the semicircle are wearing circular-brimmed hats. The fourth person is wearing a vest and what might be a neckerchief or scarf around his neck. Behind the group are five tents built within a tree-covered area. Four are large tents, while a fifth tent off to the left of the photo is a much smaller teepee-style. Handwriting is below the photograph. At this time, George Sternberg was part of this party.
