Ennis Ownby (pointing), fire guard in the Greenbrier section of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Melvin Price, custodian of the Greenbrier Pinnacle fire tower, Andrew Westhead (dark shirt), who works with the National Park Service landscape department, and Prince, the pack horse, rest atop Silers Bald. They are next to a sign that points in the direction of Kuwohi (Clingmans Dome 1859-2024) and reads “Clingmans Dome.” An Appalachian Trail marker is nailed to the sign. 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.
