Description

This black and white photograph features a specimen being transported down from where it had been excavated in Alberta, Canada. Surrounded by rocks and outcroppings, two men are helping with a horse pulling a sled on a trail. One man stands in front of the horse holding a rein, while the other man is standing behind the horse and sled. He is holding a rope. The sled is hauling the plaster and burlap covered specimen of a Trachodon. They are next to a large rock formation wall. Loose rocks can be seen at various places along the trail. Other outcroppings are seen in the background. Handwriting is below the photograph.
