After Steep Climbing For 37 Minutes: An Opening Through The Trees Reveals, In The Distance, A Partial View of Sides of Cottonwood Canyon, Downstream In Direction Northwest Towards DeWeese Home, Perhaps10 Away.

…. From Tina DeWeese We Learn That Robert Pirsig, Along With The DeWeese Family, Likely Climbed This SAME TRAIL, June 1990.

….A Facebook Comment: Below a Photo Of Gennie & Bob DeWeese, this .Facebook.com Comment Appeared => Tina DeWeese: A little correction here...it was Bob Pirsig who took this photo...when he joined us for a hike to Fox Creek Meadow for the Summer Solstice picnic after congress allocated 2 mil $ for the purchase of 2 sections of land previously owned by Plum Creek Timber. The purchase consolidated this land with NFS, keeping Cottonwood pristine...as it is still today (relatively). Pirsig's timing for a visit was impeccable, although he was here to catch up with old friends.☯️

·A Facebook Comment Added By Henry S Gurr, ZMMQ SiteMaster:
…. Concerning the above [[Facebook]] photo of Gennie DeWeese (holding yellow flower called an Alpine Lily) with husband Bob DeWeese .... , Be sure to notice that this photo was taken by ZMM Author Robert Pirsig when he was in Bozeman June 1990, with his wife Wendy [and Daughter Nell.]. Tina DeWeese says that you can tell this photo was way up in mountains, because you can see the Lodge Pole Pines in background.

A 12 March 2020 Email From Tina DeWeese, Gives Following History:
…. “ You might be interested in this note from RP when I sent the link for the www.deweeseart.com website to him and Wendy back in 2015 when I finally got it published. This [[following was]] from email April 2016:

…Hi, Tina,
We enjoyed seeing the website, and I was thrilled at the Home Page photo becaus I [Robert] took it! We have it in our photo album and always liked it very much. It was when we visited with our daughter in June 1990.

Best wishes,
Bob and Wendy
