Title	Mt. Index and the South Fork Skykomish River.
Date	ca. 1900
Photographer	Kirk, George W.
Location	United States--Washington (State)--Index
Description	Great Northern Railway track and telegraph lines parallel the river above the town of Index. This section of the line (completed in 1892) with Mt. Index to the left and Mt. Persis to the right was a popular one for both local photographers and those publicizing the railroad, often reproduced in postcard form. At this date Mt. Index was named West Mt. Index, with "Mt. Index" referring to what later was renamed Mt. Baring, which really does look like an index finger pointed skyward. (Information contributed by Dr. David A. Cameron and Forrest Johansen). #19 in a mounted photo series from Kirk Studio.
