Horse Show/Alisal Ranch

This silent, color film contains views of David Brower and other Sierra Club members ascending Shiprock in New Mexico. This film is significant because ascending Shiprock is no longer allowed to due to its sacred place in Navajo traditions and religion. The film begins with views of Shiprock, and people arriving on scene by car. The film then shows a group of men climbing the rock using various tools and equipment.
