Description
Photograph of a view of Sphinx Rock on Rim of the World Drive, [s.d.]. Rolling mountainsides covered in foliage can be seen at left and at center. Tall trees are visible growing between the mountains from bottom left to center, while fog can be seen behind the mountains into the background. The tops of more mountains can be seen in the distance emerging from the fog. A pile of rocks is visible in the right foreground on top of a hill and can be seen surrounded by a few dried bushes.
