Description

Photograph of Mary A. West (leftmost) and H. H. West (second from left) standing among others while visiting Warner Hot Spring. The group of 6 stands in the near distance at center along a pathway. Mary A. West looks to the camera with a hand to her hip; she is partially obscured by H. H. West. H. H. West stands in profile and faces towards the right. Two women stand to the right of him. One of them stands closer to the camera; she turns her back towards the camera as she sips water from a ladle she holds. To the right of her, a man stands behind a woman who looks down towards something at right. To the left of the group, a small pond stretches along the left edge of the image. A foot bridge crosses the pond to the left of Mary A. West. Standing beyond the group and left-of-center is a low stone wall and a tree. A fence lines the back edge of the garden. Mountains are visible in the far distance.
