Photograph of Mount Shasta, as viewed from a moving train en route from Banff to Los Angeles. Vegetation-covered, rolling hills stretch across the foreground. The foreground appears to blur as the camera moves past the landscape. A lone pine stands along the right edge. More pines stand in the mid-ground at right and center. A snow-covered Mount Shasta rises in the far distance at center. A cloud floats over Mount Shasta. Utility lines stretch across the upper portion of the image.
