Outdoor fireplace photo I have read many sources that indicate that "many famous photographs" were taken of the Hoovers and their guests in front of the outdoor stone fireplace, but have not found a single one anywhere, whether in the public domain or not. Does anyone know of any public domain photos that could be used here?

Hoover Mountain School photo I have had a great deal of difficulty finding any online public domain photos of the mountain school, although the Lambert's book does feature at least one highly suitable photo that is attributed to "NPS" (National Park Service) that is presumably in the public domain, just not easily locatable online. If anyone can get access to such a photo, it would be good to add to this article.
