Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "From trail East side of Glacier 1963" in handwriting. The image shows a semi—aerial view of the right side of the Mendenhall Glacier, probably taken from the East Loop Trail in the mountain above the lake. At the right, there is a thick tree line slightly below the camera, and at the far side of the glacier in the background, a sharp snowcapped peak or portion of ice field dominates. The surface of the glacier occupies the center of the image, bright white and deeply ridged. The text "10 APR 63P" is printed in ink on the frame at the upper edge.
