Photographs of the site of Pacific Light and Power Company's San Joaquin River power plant
Visual Materials
An album with 79 amateur and commercial photographs of landscape views of the San Joaquin River area in Fresno County, California, showing sites related to development and early construction of the Pacific Light and Power Company's power plant. The photographs appear to document the promotion of the Mammoth Power Company and the Pacific Light & Power Company's Big Creek projects, along with views of engineers or survey parties in the field and scenic panoramas. The accompanying photograph legend identifies some of these as dam sites and reservoir sites. Local landmarks shown include San Joaquin Canyon, Kerckhoff Dome, several waterfalls along the river, Ray City camp, and Jackson's Bridge on Big Creek. Some of the photographs show landscapes covered with snow. There is one photograph of a Native American woman with a child.
