Included in this photo are co- authors Abraham Wesan (left in khaki shirt), Dudley Lawrence (stand with a beard to Abraham's left and other Elders Robert Redford (cap and blue shirt) and Jack Docherty (Akubra hat). This site was a stop over and camping site still used up until the late 1970s. Robert Redford walked the Wilton River route back to his family's poutstation near Maningrida.
