H. H. West Jr. and Frank Willis carry duffle bags at a Boy Scouts Rally. West has the bag on his shoulder, while Willis carries his by the strap. There is another, unidentified boy at the right of the photograph, coming out of a tent. There is another tent at the left of the photograph and there is a carved animal posted on one of the tents, sticking up from a pole just about Willis's head.
Two boys watch another boy attempt to make fire by friction. The boy making fire bends on one knee and leans over his tools. They are next to a building on a sidewalk and there are cars, other people, and trees in the background. West's shadow is visible at the left of the photograph.
Boy scouts sit along the sloped shore of Jackson Lake with their backs to the camera. Beyond them in the lake, about 6 people stand aboard a showboat just left-of-center, that floats in the water. One person sits on the side and dangles their feet into the water. The boat appears to still be tethered to a dock that extends into the water from the left. A canoe (partial view) enters the frame on the right and series of buoys in the water create a barrier between the showboat and the canoe. On the opposite a shore, a man stands to the left of the showboat and a woman in a dress stands to the right of the showboat. Elevated above them, about 8 cars appear parked on a road that slants downward from left to right.
H. H. West Jr. stands in the West's front yard wearing his Boy Scouts uniform. He wears a hat and a kerchief at his neck. There are houses, trees, utility poles and wires in the background.
Boys line up at a Boy Scouts Rally in Griffith Park. The boy at the end holds a flag. There are tents behind the boys along with a tree. West's shadow is visible in the foreground of the photograph.

Four boys dress after a swim in the Los Angeles River. The boy at the left holds a stick, the one next to him is holding up his shirt, the next one is pulling on his sock, and the one at the right is totally dressed. There are other people swimming in the river beyond them. There are mountains in the background.
Three Boy Scouts hold flags in preparation for the Decoration Day parade. The boy at the center holds the American flag. The boy at the right holds a flag the reads, in part, "Glendale." A boy kneels on the ground behind them with what may be a tuba. There are people walking on the sidewalk in the background, and cars drive by.
