A two-tiered waterfall tumbles over a rocky, moss-darkened ledge into a shallow stream at the foot of the image, framed by dense green woodland and a pale, leaning tree trunk at the left. The picture carries no printed caption or place name, so the specific falls cannot be identified from the card itself; it is a typical mid-century scenic view of the sort issued for mountain and park tourist areas.
Linen-textured stock with visible crosshatch weave; no white border; no printed caption or imprint on the front; slight wear at the corners.
No postmark; unused card. Divided-back linen-texture 'Natural-Color Post Card' (E.C. Kropp) with U.S. Forest Service photo credit; light foxing/soiling on the cream stock, no handwriting.
