Hikers, including Jack Turrentine (left) and Robert (Red) Reid on the rocks, sit on White Rock, now Mount Cammerer with Mount Guyot (at left end of the clouds) in view. They are on a hike that is part of a series of Labor Day weekend day hikes in the Mount Sterling area with the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. 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.
