Robert, thank you so much...

Now knowing that the photo was from the"Ted Kierscey collection," I was able to easily find it on another site at:

https://www.narrowgauge.org/ngc/graphics/tkierscey/dspp/dspp003.jpg





Unfortunately, the site does not include the photographer, but only provides the caption "DSP&P Railroad – Near Dome Rock – 1881," and that it is from the "Ted Kierscey collection."

It is very obviously not near "Dome Rock," but instead within the interior of Platte Canyon, although I'm not certain of the exact location.  It clearly appears to be somewhere above the "upper bridge" (aka "Deansbury Bridge").
