  1. Thanks for this. I am currently reading "Short Nights of the Shadow Chaser-The Epic Life and Immortal Photographs of Edward Curtis" by Timothy Egan.
    It is remarkable what Curtis could do with light, shadow, and a camera!

  2. I believe sugar bowl is downstream in this pic,where the hill slopes off to the right.He is probably at or near the mouth of Horse lintel creek.
