Camp 59: Cherokee Pass, Rocky Mountains: Daniel A. Jenks, June 1859 (Library of Congress; restoration by Lise Broer)
In a heavily
forested pass
beneath snow
covered peaks
on the way
north
toward the Oregon
and California
trail
-- Our wagons
had to be
chained
to keep them
in their
places
the hillside
was so
steep --
Jenks made camp.
