| Description: | The picture is entirely in shades of yellow and gold, including the sky and a few clouds. The snow-capped peak of Mount Hood is in the center; a valley wall forms a triangle on the lower left sloping down to a river below on the right; farther to the right is a distant valley wall.

| Note: | In a 16 September 1999 letter, Evangeline Tai, curator of the Sonoma County Museum reported that this painting is 28 x 38 inches in size. This report raises the question of whether or not there may be two different paintings with the same title. |
| Identification: | Descriptive title of unknown origin, from the Early California and Western Art Research index. That index identifies the slide both with the 1974 Maxwell Galleries, Ltd. offering and the Sonoma Museum. |
