Looking north from about 1,000 feet west of Newfound Gap parking area to Anakeesta Knob in the foreground and Mount LeConte in the background. The points of the LeConte massif seen (L to R) are: West Peak, Cliff Top, High Point, and Myrtle Point. The photographer, Carlos C. Campbell (1892-1978), was a founding member of the Smoky Mountain Hiking Club (est. 1924) and a charter member of the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association (est. 1923). Campbell was an avid hiker and often assisted Jim Thompson with his camera equipment. When Campbell won a folding camera in 1935, he began his own photography journey, taking thousands of photographs and jotting down information about each one in small notebooks. His granddaughter, Rebecca Campbell Arrants, donated this collection of photographs and notebooks from 1934 - 1940 to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
