Description Landing at Cottonwood on the Colorado River Transcribed from photo sleeve: "Cottonwood Landing, 1946. In 1946 the National Park Service gave a temporary permit to Hurl Emery, then operating the Eldorado Fishing Camp at Eldorado Canyon, to establish a landing at Cottonwood. The dock shown was put in, also a few tent cabins, one serving as a store. It operated under these conditions for several years until a permanent lease was issued by bid to a new operator. Not shown is 16 miles of rough dirt road. Courtesy Ella Kay."
