Saw Rig at Kearns
Six men and two boys are posing near a portable saw mill. There is a steam tractor at left, with a long belt driving a large circular saw blade at right, with a pile of sawdust nearby. Logs are stacked in the background. The caption likely refers to the Thomas Kearns farm, also known as Hickory Hill, which was one of John Muir's boyhood homes. |
