[Royal Gorge, Black Canon], 1885
Scope and Contents
152 x 250 mm. A view looking along the single line railway, with the Arkansas River at the right of the picture, and with steep cliffs rising on either side of the track. Photograph possibly by W.H. Jackson. The handwritten caption here seems to be geographically inexact, this section of the line (beyond the junction of the Colorado and Arkansas Rivers) lying in the Grand Canyon of the Arkansas rather than Black Canyon.
