The Aleutian sails in the distance at center. It is viewed from the side with its bow facing left. The Ketchikan shoreline stretches along the left frame. Ships and boats are tethered to docks along the shore. Pennock Island sits behind the Aleutian and mountains rise in the far distance at center.
