Yellow Rock (also known Joe Vanderburg and I'kaubut S'shensh), a Native American man on the Flathead Indian Reservation in western Montana, stands in a field on the reservation. He wears large round earrings, numerous beaded necklaces, a choker necklace (possibly made from bone), long braids wrapped in strips of fur, and a band of white fur tied around each of his arms. A group of teepees is in the distance at the base of a ridge of mountains.
