14. Shoshones pose at J.K. Moore’s Trading
Post,. Date unknown. (Wind River Archives, Central Wyoming College)
 The
importance of the trading post as a center of reservation life is
reflected in the fact that it was used as a backdrop for many photos
of reservation residents. When President Grover Cleveland visited
the reservation in 1883, his photographer used it to pose Washakie
(right, on horseback) and a group of Shoshones.
