Description

This photograph looking west from the high knob just east of Dry Sluice Gap is by George Masa (1885-1933). Born in Japan and raised as Shoji Endo, Masa came to the United States in 1906. In 1915, he moved to Asheville and was known variously as G. M. Iizuka, George M. Iizuka, and Masahara Iizuka, before adopting George Masa as his professional name. Masa was active in the Carolina Appalachian Trail Club, which merged with the Carolina Mountain Club, and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
