Description

The Edwin C. Jellett Series of Scrapbooks, Volume 5 -The Wissahickon Page 136 contains two photographs: (a, top) This photograph shows a bridle path through the Wissahickon Valley. The path is bordered on the right by a wooden fence and on both sides by a canopy of trees and vegetation. The trees and vegetation provide a contrast of light and darkness as the sun shines through the tree canopy. (b, bottom) The photograph shows a wooden foot bridge/path that branches off from the main path and continues along a smaller path out of camera view. A sign to the left identifies this small path as a "foot-walk". Dense foliage obscures the path as it recedes into the distance.
