A grave marked for A.H. Unthank stands in Douglas County, Wyoming, where a pioneer-era burial sits beside a power plant and a segment of the Oregon National Historic Trail. The contrast is striking: the route that once carried wagon trains west now runs through a landscape of modern utilities. Many Oregon Trail graves in Wyoming were simple and unmarked, and some were lost over time. This 1991 gelatin silver print records the site near the close of the twentieth century.
