Charles Richard Miller, a young scenic photographer from Oregon, came to Northern California around 1900 and settles in the booming lumber camps around the base of Mt. Shasta. Within a few years he became one of the foremost photographers of the region, earning commissions from logging companies to record their activities, camps, and mill towns. He also photographed the private retreats along the McCloud River of wealthy San Franciscans such as William Randolph Hearst and Clarence Waterhouse.
