Description
Photograph of mountain peaks with eroded soil, Altadena, [s.d.]. The side of a mountain composed primarily of dirt can be seen at center. Vertical lines are visible in the dirt due to water once rushing down the side of the mountain, while a few patches of snow can be seen towards the top. Pine trees can be seen at right, while snow-capped mountain peaks are visible in the background. A portion of a dirt hillside sloping downwards can be seen in the foreground.
