Re: New mystery photo

Obviously, captions on old photographs are often erroneous. Ive seen the same photograph with a different label at different historical societies-Ive even published one in the Sonora Narrow Gauge book that, in hindsight, does not appear to be what the caption in the museum said it was....

Having said that, this beautiful old photograph is a challenge!
It looks like the forest is almost exclusively Ponderosa pine-which doesn't narrow it down much. One clue I see is the rocks on the side of the road. The tone and way they break look like limestone. The topography of the valley also looks like a karst topography. Could it be one of the logging narrow gauges on the Mogollon Rim country of Arizona?
