This watecolour in an art deco style depicts two camels, a semi-circular train of donkeys and a central male figure with a hat and beard. The artist included a descriptive card that reads: Camels were used as pack animals, for about a year in 1861, on the Douglas and Lillooet portages. Their musk-like odour enraged and terrified the mules.
