About this postcard

A distant view of Camels Hump, the prominent 4,083-foot peak of Vermont's Green Mountains, rising above forested foothills with a pale sunrise or sunset glow along the horizon. The mountain's bare, rounded summit, one of the few remaining undeveloped alpine zones in Vermont, appears in a tinted halftone view, with green pastures and wooded slopes of the surrounding valley in the foreground.
