An outside photograph of a large campsite with a log cabin in the far back. There are three Tule mat tipis in this campsite and a long tent that is made of canvas. The first tipi in the left of the photograph is five layers of Tule mats and the second one is five also. In between the two tipis inside of the trees are unidentified objects. The canvas long tent is set up out in the open ground next to the tree line. Behind the long tent is a small barn with a horse saddled up in front of the barn. In front of the barn and behind the horse are a couple of wagons. Next to the barn is another Tule mat tipi which is four layers high. Behind the last tipi is a log cabin. In the right side of the photograph is part of a shed. The background is mixed cottonwood and pine trees. The hillside behind the trees is open and rocky.
