1910
Description
In 1910 when this photo was taken, waterproof clothing would have been a dream. These “mountaineers descending in snow" might have been glad they waterproofed their leather boots, otherwise they would be hiking down on frozen feet. They might also be in a hurry to return to camp to warm their hands trapped in those wet wool gloves.
Location unknown.
