Description

This black and white photograph features depicts the badlands on the Red Deer River in Alberta. The hills are in the foreground of the photograph, and the horizon is a cloudless sky with no hills. The river runs through Saskatchewan, Canada, and Steveville, Alberta, Canada. The dry badlands are hilly and stratified. The majority are small hills, but to the far right, a tall, darker hill rises from the valley. The larger hill on the right is eroded; there is scattered dirt and rock at the bottom of the large hill. Handwriting is below the photograph.
