About this postcard

A paved road cut into a steep, rocky slope hugs the shoreline of a large lake, with a low ridge of blue-purple mountains across the water and a pale sky above. The bare, sun-baked rock and scrubby green patches suggest a western North American mountain lake landscape. No caption or imprint identifies the location on this side of the card.
