Description: Distant photograph, from left to right, of Wayne West, Maud West, Mertie West, Agnes Whitaker and Forrest Whitaker standing outside of Doctor Ambrose Teel's cabin at Big Bear Lake. Rocky ground and tall grasses stretch across the foreground. The cabin stands in the distance at center. It is viewed at a slight angle from the front. The front entry to the cabin stands elevated from the ground. A porch extends in front of it, with stair access to the right of the door. Vertical slats of lumber stretch across the front siding of the cabin and the siding along the front porch. The group stands, left-of-center, in front and below the front porch. They stand in a row, except for Maud West; she stands behind and between Wayne West and Mertie West. Most face towards the camera; Forrest Whitaker faces left. Tall pines stand behind the cabin in the distance.
