Album caption and index card: Summit of Fremont Peak. Fremont County, Wyoming. 1878? Typed information on back of duplicate photograph: Photograph by W.H. Jackson, taken on the Hayden Survey, showing the rock citadel at the summit of Fremont Peak, Wyoming.

Instead of his customary wetplate outfit, Jackson used a collodi-bromide emulsion for making dry plates. PIO-Hist 293d. The National Archives dates this photo probably taken...

The Great West. Beaver dams on Henry's Fork. This stream was at one time thickly inhabited by beavers,but they have been nearly driven out by the advance of civilization. There are many left, however, insome of the quiet, secluded nooks, and in such a place we found the subject which affords us so excellent an illustration of their habits. They have here constructed a dam across the channel of the fork, about 50 yards in length and from 3 to 5 feet in height. Daggett County, Utah. 1870.
