This is a scan of a pic I found blowing in the wind, downwind and down canyon from the BS tunnel. It's a 5 X 7 color print, crudely framed in cardboard, and wrapped in a clear 3-ring binder page cover. He looks like an old desert fellow of Norse descent.

I got a message in a round-about way that this photo was in the lower outhouse at the Burro Schmidt tunnel just before the place was trashed. With such a prominent place of display he must have been special in some way.
If anyone has an interest in such desert flotsam they are welcome to the original pic. |

You need to contact Chuck Goodenough through the Friends of Burro Schmidt and let him know you have this. The Friends should have first rights to anything that was up at Burro Schmidt's so they can evaluate any historical significance and preserve it.
