A family photograph on Umbrella Rock atop Lookout Mountain, Tennessee.
Inscribed across the top of the photograph: "Dembo's - Umbrella Rock - Chattanooga, Tenn. 1937."
Perched atop Point Lookout, Umbrella Rock is one of the most famous locations in the Chattanooga area. This unusual geological formation consists of several large stones topped by a large, flat slab. The rock has hosted innumerable visitors over the years, perhaps most famously Ulysses S. Grant. Formerly a popular location for photographs, erosion has made it unstable, and it is now closed to the public.Photograph Details
