The view looks across Loch Vale, a calm subalpine lake in Rocky Mountain National Park, toward a rugged range with reddish rock faces and snow still lodged in the gullies. Dark evergreen forest lines the far shore and frames the foreground, with a few bare, weathered trunks leaning in from the left. The printed caption identifies the lake and park. Loch Vale, often called The Loch, sits in Glacier Gorge, one of the park's high basins known for its lakes and surrounding peaks.
