About this postcard

Square Top Mountain rises 11,679 feet above Lower Green River Lake in Bridger National Forest, Wyoming. The flat-topped peak stands at the edge of the Bridger Wilderness, near the largest collection of glaciers in the United States. In the photograph, the mountain and its snowfields are reflected in the calm lake, with dark evergreens framing the foreground and forested slopes climbing toward the summit. The view is paired with the Chevrolet slogan "See the U.S.A. in a Chevrolet," a road-travel promotion that tied scenic postcards to car culture.
