Segregation

Four African American teenage campers stand by a truck at Camp Nizhoni in Lincoln Hills (Gilpin County), Colorado. One camper holds a patterned, wide-brimmed hat. The license plate on the Ford truck reads: "Colo. 1937 1-82702."

African American teenage campers wear swim suits and swim caps as they splash in South Boulder Creek in Camp Nizhoni in Lincoln Hills (Gilpin County), Colorado. A campground building and flagpole are in the distance.

View of the dam at the entrance of Big Thompson Canyon (Larimer County), Colorado. Water flows over the dam, and a small concrete building near large pipes is shown.
