About this postcard

A wooded ravine near Binghamton, New York, with a rocky ledge at left, dense trees and undergrowth, a small stream running over stones at the bottom, and a rustic wooden footbridge or railing crossing the gorge at right. Binghamton sits at the confluence of the Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers in New York's Southern Tier, a region of steep, wooded hills and glens that were popular scenic subjects for local view cards in the early 20th century.
