Two versions of the orginal Stereocard have survived. This one is the original by Alfred A. Hart. Carleton Watkins obtained the negatives and reprinted it, croppng out the top of Donner Peak. The composition changed entirely, and the symbolism between the standing figures and the peaks above was gone. If you want to go see this view, you're lucky. There is an opening in the current concrete snowsheds that allows you to walk through the tunnel and step outside. Not only can you admire the mountain, but just turn around for great views of Donner Lake, Mt. Stephens and stewart Peak.
