Warner [4022]

PH Coll 273.515

In 1888, photographer Arthur Churchill Warner was engaged by John Muir to join a Mt. Rainier climbing expedition as a working member of a small party that would also include Major Edward S. Ingraham, the Californian artist William Keith, a young scientist named Charles V. Piper, Henry Loomis, Norman O. Booth, Daniel Waldo Bass, young Joe Stampfler and John Hays who tended the horses, the guides Indian Henry and Philemon Beecher Van Trump. This would be the first historic use of a camera at the summit of the mountain. His personal account of this ascent was published in "The Mountaineer" in 1956. Unfortunately, many of the original negatives appear to have been lost, perhaps as a result of the devastating fire of 1889 not ten months after the Mt. Rainier photographs of August 1888.
