Photograph of H. H. West standing in a meadow and posing in front of Mount Hood. A gravel road stretches across the bottom edge in the foreground. On the far side of the road, a meadow stretches back towards Mount Hood. H. H. West stands in the near distance in the meadow at center. He looks to the camera. To the left of him, 2 pines stand in the field. Pines line ridges that rise up from the meadow. Beyond the ridges, a snow-covered Mount Hood rises at center.
