Photograph looking down a street in Valdez towards the pier in the far distance. A wide dirt road extends from the bottom edge and into the distance. It sits off-center to the left. About 3 buildings line each side of the road in the near distance. A cafe and hotel occupy the buildings nearest to camera along the left side of the road. A house appears to sit nearest to camera at right. Cars park along the street. At the horizon, the funnel of a ship is visible; dark smoke billows from it. Mountains rise in the far distance at center.
