Granny on Iron in Cottonwoods

Bill Yellowtail photographs 1960s-2000

Description:

Far distant from the photographer, Jane Powers, matriarch of the Yellowtail ranch family, rides her horse Iron alongside a forest that borders open pastureland. The Big Horn Mountains are in the background. The golden hue of many of the trees indicates that it is the fall season. The scene likely takes place on the Yellowtail family ranch.
