The photograph follows a winding dirt road through a dense stand of tall evergreens toward rugged, snow-streaked mountains. Dark conifers frame the foreground and narrow the view to the roadway and the peaks beyond. Moraine Lake sits in the Valley of the Ten Peaks in Banff National Park, Alberta, a well-known scenic destination in the Canadian Rockies; this road was the approach for early visitors to the lake.
