Visual Materials
A scrapbook album containing a collection of 339 stereograph halves, with accompanying printed labels, of views documenting John Wesley Powell's surveys of the Green and Colorado Rivers and other parts of the canyon regions for the United States Geographical and Geological Survey of the Rocky Mountain Region. Views are divided into two main series, with "Views on the Green River" and "Views on the Colorado River" as the first, and subseries including "Glen Canon," "Marble Canon," "Cataract Canon," and "Grand Canyon"; the second series covers tributaries of the Green and Colorado Rivers with "Views on Kanab Creek"; "Views on the Rio Virgen"; "Views on the Sevier River"; "Views on Colob Plateau"; "Views in the Uinkaret mountains"; "Views on the Escalante River"; "Views on Vermillion Creek"; "Views on Ashley's Creek"; and "Views on Brush Creek". Most of the images are focused on the natural features of the terrain, but a few include members of the survey team. Credited photographers are E.O. Beaman, John K. Hillers, and J. Fennimore.
