Scope and Content Note
Photographs show the impact of human activities in Yosemite National Park, including a garbage area and incinerator, an abandoned
outhouse, overflow campers camping in meadows, the development of various tourist and employee facilities, crowds of visitors,
etc. Many photographs show transportation in and to the park: the last horse stage coach and the first automobile to reach
the park. Other transportation photos show bridges, roads, buses, and serious traffic congestion.
