Kitty Hawk, North Carolina

In this photograph of Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers' 1900 campsite can be seen amidst the sand-swept landscape. That autumn Orville wrote his sister, "The wind [has] blown millions and millions of loads of sand up in heaps along the coast, completely covering houses and forests." The Wright's' 1900 camp was located about four miles north of the campsite of 1901 and later years.
