- Photograph, from left to right of Bessie Velzy, Elizabeth West, Minnie West and Frances West at Whitmore Tub (hot spring). Bessie sits in a crouched position with her arms across her legs.

She is mostly obscured by Bessie's knee and is only visible from the nose up; she wears a knit hat. Next to Elizabeth, Minnie sits at the spring's edge with her legs dangling in the water. Frances stands in the spring with her pants rolled up and her hands on her hips as she looks to the camera. The hot spring occupies the lower right portion of the photograph. It is surrounded by tall grasses. A few low hills stand in the background.
