Description
Photograph of Boulder Canyon and Lake Meade, ca.1935. The daunting, jagged rock walls stand in opposition over the calm water with flows down the center between them. The water reflects streaks of sunlight which shine brilliantly against the reflections of the dark rocks on either side. The lake flows out of sight as it winds through the canyon in the background.
