Description
Picture of all the missionaries who made the trip to Mt. Omei on the stairs of an unidentified temple. All of them have changed into their formal clothes after their invigorating trek. One of the monks can be seen in the background. Most likely they are staying at this temple overnight before continuing their trek the next morning. Myrtle Johns is the third from left in the second row. Alfred Johns is not in this photo.
