A view of a Native American encampment on the Umatilla Indian Reservation, taken July 4, 1902. About 20 tipis are set up in a line along a low rise of ground. There seems to be water in a little wash behind them, and a river in the background, with low bluffs rising up from it. To the right of the photo are some trees, and in the foreground several discarded cans. A small dog or cat ambles in front of the second tipi from the left; a pair of grazing horses and a person can be seen at the right. There appears to be some sort of vehicle or equipment near the small tipi in the center of the image. The ground is covered with grass and low shrubs, and low clouds are scudding across the sky.
An outside photograph of what has been identified as the Umatilla River in Oregon. The river flows between two embankments of fir trees. The right embankment contains a high density of fir trees, and the left embankment contains a patch of fir trees surrounded by wild grasses, rock, and dirt. The river shows its currents and ripples, with a water flow toward the bottom of the photograph. The water flow appears to drop off slightly, like a small waterfall. The river first appears in the photograph after it winds around a bend in the embankments. Toward the top of the photograph a mountain range can be seen in the distance. The top of the photograph displays large, dark clouds that threaten rain.
Two young Native American girls are sitting on the bank of a pond or stream. The location is identified as being near Cayuse Station. The older girl is holding the younger girl in front of her. Only her head, her braids, the collar and shoulders of her cloth dress, and the bottom of one moccasin are visible. The younger child is wrapped in a small blanket or shawl, has a beaded necklace, with a beaded flap or sleeve from her dress visible on one arm. There is a clear bucket or large jar placed next to the girls, with an unidentified object in it. The bank where the girls are sitting is a flat clearing, covered with gravel and rocks, that meets the edge of the water. There is an area on the other side of the water that is also covered with rocks, but is steep, not flat. The rest of the embankment, on both sides of the water, is covered with shrubs and trees., Near Cayuse Station [Cayuse Indian children in regalia by stream.]
