On the reverse of this image is written, "From the state line between Peck's Corner (at the junction of Hughes Ridge and the main range) and Laurel Top we enjoy a breath-taking view of Bradley Fork (N.C.) front row, bottom to top: Guy Frizzell, Carter Whittaker, Chas. Gibson, Warner Hall, Chas. Cornforth. Standing, bottom to top: Harvey Broome, Carlos Campbell, Walter Berry - Walter Berry photo 8-11-32." The photograph is included in the records of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club which was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. The back of the picture is stamped “Jim Thompson Co.,” indicating it was probably printed by hiking club member James E. (Jim) Thompson (1880-1976), a professional photographer who played a major role in promoting a national park in the Southern Appalachians.
