Yosemite Fall, seen from near Hutchings' property, makes up the subject here, with a small excursion party visible in the scene to give a sense of scale against the valley's granite walls. Stereoviews like this one were sold in the late nineteenth century to families who slid them into viewers to see the valley in three dimensions. Yosemite Valley had become a popular tourist destination after Congress set it aside as a protected grant in 1864, and the cascade's towering drop drew visitors eager to see it up close. The party's presence is worth noticing, since it shows how people were drawn into these views as travelers marveling at the scenery.
