(a, top) This photograph is circular in size and is captioned "Wooden Figure on Indian Rock, 1889". The photograph shows Indian Rock. The wooden figure is barely discernable. Most likely it is a rear view; however, it could also be a frontal view with the painted figure of the Indian "weathered" beyond recognition.
(b, bottom) This photograph (with a distinctly "blueish" tint) is captioned "Indian Rock from site of Indian Rock Hotel, 1897". The photograph shows the approach to the Rex Avenue bridge in the foreground. In the background the tree-covered hillside ascends to almost the top of the photograph. The Indian statue is barely visible on the left portion of the hillside near the summit. The scene is Winter with snow covering the ground.Collection
