[Indian Marker Tree]
Slide of a large tree with a thick, inclined trunk pointed to the left. To the right, there appears to be a single-story structure with a metal roof and a small fence flanking its side. Accompanying information provides the name "Indian Marker Tree" for the slide, but no other information is supplied.
[Metal Tool Touching Spinal Column]
Slide of a partial spinal column within a lightly excavated mound of dirt. An upturned hand on the top left holds a slender metal utensil, as if about to touch the specimen. In the back right corner, slightly out of focus, an array of both fractured and whole bones can be seen. Some of these appear to have a head, similar to that of a femur or other bones found in limbs.
[Mormon Mill Falls]
Slide of Mormon Mill Falls. Taken a short distance away from the edge of the water, the image captured the waterfalls depositing into a still body of water. In the back, the landscape rises into high hills with many small bushes and trees crowding the rocks.
[Mountainside and Creek in Daylight]
Slide of an outdoor scene identified as Cow Creek. A sloping mountainside is seen in the background, with multiple, lush trees scattered on its ground. A wide body of water leads up to it, interrupted in its downward stream by protruding mounds of sand and rocks. Small bushes flank each side.
[Outdoor Scene of Water and Small Waterfall]
Slide of a pool of water lying next to and below what appears to be a walking path of sorts, judging by the picket fence that lines the top of the hill. From a center spot near the fence, a small stream of water falls down into the water, disturbing it slightly. A large tree is to the right, a short distance away from the edge of the water.
[Outdoor Scene with Rocks and Trees]
Slide of an outdoor scene in clear daylight with trees spread out in the background. Several large rocks crowd the foreground with short grasses growing around them.
[Rock Wall Receding into Background]
Slide of a rock wall built on an unkempt grassy area. The wall has an uneven height, composed of rocks of varying colors and size, and appears to be quite long. It recedes into the background at a sharp angle and appears to meet a tree seen in the distance. Accompanying information assigns the name "Black's Fort" to the location, but there is no other significant information supplied.
[Stalactites and Stalagmites in Cave]
Slide of the inside of a cavernous interior filled with stalactites and stalagmites in varying sizes. A spotlight illuminates a small pool of water and its surrounding area in the back. The light appears to be coming from a small corner on the far right.
[Wide Shot Photograph of a Landscape]
Slide of a large expanse of terrain. A tall sloping hill is visible in the background across the width of the photograph. Several lines of trees in succession can also be seen running the width of the image, with large gaps formed by the areas which they do not occupy. In the very distance, on the left, there appears to be a single-story structure. Its gabled and light-colored roof can be seen, as well as a chimney and perhaps a patio, nestled among a group of leafy trees.
[Wide View of Sloping Hills and Trees at Hickory Pass]
Slide of a sloping hillside known as Hickory Pass. From the vantage point of the photograph, several thick clusters of bushes can be seen dispersed all along the terrain. In the distance, a narrow winding road recedes into the distance.
[Wooden Lodge Past Wire Fence and Grassy Field]
Slide of small, single-story structure constructed out of horizontal wooden posts. The gable roof is missing its pediment, revealing a dark interior. On both sides, it is flanked by a short rock wall, with tall, unkempt grasses crowding it. Additionally, there appears to be a kind of outdoor chimney on the left side of the house, behind the wall. Near the foreground, a few species of flowers can be seen, as well as a wire fence. Accompanying information assigns the name "Black's Fort" to the location.
