Abstract:

Stereo photographs taken with an ordinary camera mounted on a shop-made tripod attachment proved valuable in studying trail entrenchment, and may have other field applications. Entrenchment can be measured from the photos on a stereo plotter. The photos also illustrate changes in earth movement and facilitate relocation of transects.
