Few pictures place Theodore Roosevelt beside a working naturalist quite like this one, taken at Fort Yellowstone, the Army post that administered the park at the time. John Burroughs, the essayist whose books on birds and woodland life had earned him a wide readership, joined the president on his 1903 visit, and the two spent days touring the geysers and backcountry together. Roosevelt admired Burroughs's writing and shared his love of wild country, and the trip drew wide attention to conservation. The photograph captures the friendship of two men who helped shape the American conservation movement.
