Description

Mount Collins (left center) and Kuwohi (Clingmans Dome 1857-2024) in the right center background, as seen from the Bull Head trail as it swings around the southside of Balsam Point of Mount LeConte. The Chimney Tops are seen dimly in the center. 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.
