description: 
Gertrude Van Roekel noted that this was a common scene at the Fiesta when all traveled by covered wagon. The meat is drying on the lines strung on the wagon. The barrels to the left are for water to last the four days of the Fiesta. The Apache often traded their jerky made from their sheep to the Pueblo Indians for fresh fruit and vegetables.
