The view looks along a paved road cut into a steep, rocky slope at the edge of a large lake. A low ridge of blue-purple mountains rises across the water under a pale sky, and bare rock and scrubby green patches line the shore. The printed caption identifies the road as Lake Shore Drive on Shoshone Lake, on the Cody Way to Yellowstone National Park. The caption presents the drive as part of the motor route from Cody into the park, a scenic approach that auto tourists used in the 1930s.
