A sepia photograph shows a narrow path and a small stream winding through dense woods. Trees crowd the banks, and water runs over rocks in the foreground. The sender, writing from Geneva, NY, in July 1911, describes a 3,000-foot climb and a view from the mountains, a contrast to the shaded forest scene.
