Description

Text and annotations on album page read: "[ARL-160], [ARL-161] and [ARL-162] The first heavy rain of the season washed away our bridge, making it impossible to get to the station. The train had to stop at the old crossing, and the girls, baggage and all had [to be taken in the truck]." The photographic prints on album page show: seven African American campers from Camp Nizhoni; group of Camp Nizhoni campers and counselors stand near a D.& R.G.W. Railroad passenger car; ten African American campers from Camp Nizhoni in Lincoln Hills (Gilpin County), Colorado.
