Summary: Photograph shows the actress Esther Lyons and another woman inserted into a scene of a campsite with photographer and author Veazie Wilson and a companion at Lake Bennett, British Columbia. Although Lyons wrote a series of articles about the expedition she claimed to have taken, and lectured about it for the rest of her life, later research indicated there is no evidence of her participation in the expedition and that, in fact, she could not have been on the expedition at that time.
