. This photo print, titled "CAMPING, c1872" offers a fascinating window into the world of early American surveyors during their geological expeditions. Taken by renowned photographer William Henry Jackson in 1872, this image showcases a group of men, possibly surveyors themselves, immersed in their campsite amidst the untamed wilderness.
