Thunderhead from Park Service fire road near Schoolhouse Gap in Scott Mountain. The sharp point near left end is the point on Defeat Ridge. Little Bald is behind the pine tree. Col. David C. Chapman and Mrs. Lida M. Ross are in the left foreground. 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.
