Most of these photographs are within a photo album but there are other loose photographs from this trip. Robert Snyder also donated records from several other trips, including a journal covering his travels during his Harbin trip, several records from his trip to the Canadian Arctic and Greenland in 2013, and several more from his 2014 trip to Antarctica.
