The first excursion made stops at Pueblo and Denver, Colorado; Santa Fe, New Mexico; and Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, and Yosemite National Park, California. The second excursion made stops at Chihuahua, Zacatecas, Quéretaro, and Mexico City, Mexico. The scrapbook contains newspaper clippings, brochures, pamphlets, postcards, as well as a "Pocket Guide to Mexico," and "Brief Guide to Mexico City."
