Photograph depicting a group of men and women sitting on donkeys, burros, and horses near an unidentified alpine lake probably in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado. The women ride sidesaddle, they wear long dresses and hats or bonnets. The men are dressed in suits, one man has a pair of binoculars around his neck. The lake is in a glacial cirque, an unidentified peak is in the distance. This image was photographed by W. J. Carpenter circa 1889-1890.
