Looking up at a snow-covered mountain peak with a few skiers. A caption on the verso states "The higher elevations of Mount Seymour Park reveal vast expanses of snow disturbed only by a few tracks of enthusiastic skiers and hikers. Here the snow depths range up to thirty feet and the skiing may last until June."
