1882 Lithograph of Views Looking East & South from Mt. Trumbull

This is an amazingly detailed & accurate two-part view from Mt. Trumbull, just north of the Grand Canyon, looking east and south toward the Canyon.  The view was published in 1882 as part of Edward Dutton's Atlas of the "Grand Canyon District."  This is a two part view showing the southern and eastern views of Mt. Trumbull. A note on the left says: "Upper View looking east; the Grand Canyon in the distance... In the foreground is the upper part of the Toroweap Valley." A note at right says: "Lower View looking south from a different standpoint; the Grand Canyon in the distance with its opening of the inner gorge..."  Edward Dutton was born in Wallingford, CT, on May 15, 1841, graduating from Yale in 1860.  He served in the Union Army during the Civil War, and then joined the U.S. Geological Survey.  He worked in a number of places, including Hawaii, Oregon, and the American Southwest, in particular surveying the Grand Canyon.  In 1882, he issued his Atlas of the Grand Canyon survey
