Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Skagway 7—26—63" in handwriting. The image shows a wide swath of water, probably the Chilkoot Inlet leading to Skagway. The prow of a boat is visible at extreme left. Across the water there is a far shore, with a thin strip of beach leading to a cluster of structures stretching from not quite the left edge of the image all the way to the right edge. Above these, several mountains loom, forming a tight valley in the middle beyond which more mountains lie. The number "18 AUG 63P" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper edge.
