One photograph depicting a view from a distance of an Ancestral Puebloan cliff dwelling at Two Story House, an archaeological site built under a rock overhang in Ute Mountain Tribal Park on the Ute Mountain Indian Reservation in Towaoc, Colorado---a park that lies around a 25-mile stretch of the Mancos River. Two men are present beside a two-story building of masonry construction. One man wears a hat and leans against the stone wall. The other sits and writes on a paper medium. The photograph is another copy of the same photo in GLC02436.29. With gilded edges.
