Description

This black and white photograph depicts a scene showing an individual leading a bridled horse hauling a plaster covered specimen atop a wooden sledge attached behind it. Another person follows closely thereafter, carrying the cord fixed to the towed mass. They walk up a slope a stone precipice of stratified rock. Below them, downhill, brush and loose rock cover the space. To their right, a rock form with vertical erosion rises like a wall, and to their left is a steep, rocky slope. The rock layers of the hillside can be seen, ultimately fading into the shrubbery and grit that make up the ground.
