About this photograph

A family waters their horses during a camping trip at Mountain Home in the Sierra Nevada in 1911. The photographer is not identified.

Tulare County lies in California's San Joaquin Valley, a farming region that saw heavy settlement in the late nineteenth century. The county library maintains a substantial local history photograph collection focused on ordinary residents, families, schools, and businesses rather than public figures.

The record does not name the family or say where in the county they came from. Mountain Home sits in the Sierra Nevada range in the eastern portion of Tulare County. The photograph shows a moment during their camping trip, but the record gives no further detail about the journey's purpose or length.

Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
