Description	BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY: Some quite notable people were on this trip with Tad Nichols. Associated with the Los Alamos lab in New Mexico were physicists Jim Tuck and Paul Stein, as well as mathematician, Nick Metropolis. Joan Matthias was also a part of this group; she was the wife of Los Alamos physicist, Bernd Matthias. Photographer, Eliot Porter, made the trip, too, along with some of his family members: sons, Eliot, Jr. ('Bebo'), Jack, and Jonathan, and Jonathan's wife, Zoi. Tish Frank, a companion to Georgia O'Keeffe on previous Lake Powell trips, also joined the group. One man identified only as Jeff rounded out the 'Escalante bunch' at twelve in all. The pack-horse outfit that brought food and supplies to Tad's group consisted of Ken Sleight and Vaughan Short, and two other young men named only as Jeff and Mark.
