33 views of mountains taken at the Baltic Tower, aka Baltic Lookout Station, in Eldorado National Forest in 1971 and 1972. Pictured are Pyramid Peak, Crystal Range, Heliport, Mount Mokelumne, Lake Jenkinson, Bunker Hill, Silver Lake, Mount Zion, Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station, Carson Spur, Jackson Butte, Pine Hill, Omo Ranch and more.
31 slides of activity at the Omo Ranch in El Dorado County, California. There are two primary subjects - some log/timber stacking by heavy machinery and a lot of shots of smoke drifting from the ranch as seen from the Baltic Tower.
15 slides from a visit to the Goldstone Tracking Complex in San Bernardino County, California. The bulk of the shots are of the mars antenna and antenna control board.
150 pictures taken of lookout towers, around lookout towers and from lookout towers in the early to mid 1970s. Some of the towers include Bunker HIll, Baltic, Stinson Beach, Livermore Monitor, Leek Springs and Big Hill. I assume that these are all in California.
186 weather-related photographs. I assume that many of these were taken in lookout towers, many at the Baltic Tower. Subjects include clouds, storms, rainbows, sunrises, sunsets and a few landscapes.
23 slides of Sly Park Recreation Area from Pollock Pines, California. Slides are labeled "New Construction Camp Creek Bridge - November 1975", "Sly Park Overflow - May 1974", "Dry Year At Sly Park - November 1976" and "Baltic II (sailboat?) Sly Park - May 1976"
22 pictures, most from the 1970s. Primary subjects are a Cung Chúc Tân Xuân program at Vietnam TET, Mary putting Christmas decorations (Joseph, Mary, Jesus) on her roof, and Pete in Halloween costumes.
15 pictures that seem to be documenting disatisfaction with a variety of subjects - Baltic radio antenna, hot water heater, fence foundation and Jeep valves. Nearly every slide has information written on the frames.
500ish pictures of Walter's friends and favorite places. Plenty of shots around the Baltic Tower, weddings, eclipse, birthday parties and other events. Some of the friends pictured are Lee & Carole, Ellis & Carrie, Judy Nichols, Mildred McCallom, Judy Tyson, Maria Elena & Carlos and more. Speaking of Carlos, check out the Christmas 1968 picture. Carlos scored a Tonka truck, Rat Patrol style Desert Patrol military jeep and TWO Thingmaker sets.
22 slides in this lot - most from a sort of Renaissance Festival and a few of a Praying Mantis munching on another insect. This roll of film gets big points for diversity.
Highlights from these 18 slides are probably the Little League game, including the celebration at the end, and some shots of people on what are most likely 1970s bicycles.
