Snow-capped mountain range reflected in a lake, circa 1940

About this postcard

A jagged, snow-streaked mountain range rises above a still lake that mirrors the peaks almost perfectly, with dark evergreen trees framing the foreground and a few small reddish-roofed buildings tucked among the pines at left. The scene is a classic view of an alpine lake in the American West, of the kind produced for tourists in the mid-20th century; the card carries no printed caption, so the specific range and lake are not identified on the scan.
