View of the Manitou Soda Spring in Manitou Springs, Colorado, looking northwest; shows the rustic gazebo with its branch uprights and benches, the boulder at the confluence of Ruxton and Fountaine qui Bouille, and a group of excursionists gathered around the stone ring-basin from which the spring originates. The men are in sack suits, stovepipe hats and gold chains; the women are in ribboned bonnets, corsets, bodices and draped, bustled overdresses with wide, pleated flounces. A woman holds a parasol; a child sits on the stone ring.
