Hay-burners and oil-burners. A young horsewoman with a pack mule in tow, crosses the Southern Pacific tracks near the depot in Laws, California, headed for the nearby hills with supplies for her family's mining operation.
This re-creation was staged during a March, 2023 photo shoot at the Laws Museum near Bishop, California, featuring the Southern Pacific, narrow gauge, 10-wheeler #18, operated by the Carson & Colorado Railway. The young woman depicted works with horses for a living and provides back-country guide services to hikers and campers who are looking for adventure in the nearby Sierra wilderness.
