A snowcovered stratovolcano in the center is viewed through a steep valley with a bottom (probably a river) at the right. The sky appears to be cloud-filled. The foreground hillside on the left is largely clear, with low brush and rocks and a prominent boulder near the left front. The more distant parts of the valley on both sides are forested. Although a fewe trees stand on the other side of the foreground clearing, none are particularly prominent. (From a color photograph.) |
