Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "Slide Juneau '62" in handwriting. The image shows an exterior looking down over a hillside into a small valley. The foreground is framed by trees, with a number of broken ones in the center. There is a patch of what looks like soiled snow and a further flooded area in the middle of the image, below the hillside. At the background, a wall of snowcapped mountains extends along the entirety of the image. The number "15" is printed in ink on the frame at the upper left. Also bears the printed text "JUL 62P" on the bottom edge, perhaps indicating when the slide was developed.
