Here's a description of the image:

This is a sepia-toned stereoscopic card from the 1872 expedition led by 1st Lieut. Geo. M. Wheeler of the Corps of Engineers. The card features two side-by-side images of a desert landscape.

The scene depicts a series of rolling hills and a small, conical butte in the background. The foreground is dominated by a sandy track or road that winds through the hills. The terrain is dotted with sparse vegetation and scattered rocks.

The card itself has a yellow border. On the left side of the border, "EXPEDITION OF 1872" is printed vertically. On the right side, "1st Lieut. GEO. M. WHEELER, Corps of Engineers Commanding." is printed vertically. The number "113" is handwritten at the bottom of the left image.

Here is a description of the image:

The image is a stereo photograph from the "Expedition of 1872" by 1st Lieut. George M. Wheeler of the Corps of Engineers Commanding. The scene captures a landscape dominated by gently rolling hills and a large, conical hill in the background. The topography appears arid, with sparse vegetation scattered across the terrain. A winding dirt road or trail can be seen snaking its way through the hills, suggesting a path through the landscape. The stereo format creates a sense of depth, enhancing the three-dimensional perception of the scene. The sepia tones and the image's age suggest that it is a historical photograph. The card is marked with the number "113".
