An out-of-focus photograph of a bridge crossing over Kicking Horse River in Field. A dirt road runs horizontally through the foreground along the bottom edge. At center, a cross road extends back on an angle to the left. Just down the road, left-of-center, a 3-span truss bridge stretches over the Kicking Horse River. The bridge is viewed from a foreshortened perspective as it stretches back to the left. A sign over the bridge reads, "[...] FIELD." Beneath the bridge, Kicking Horse River flows horizontally through the image. On the opposite bank, a building stands at center. Mountains rise across the background.
