Description

This black and white photograph features a part of the badlands around the Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada. Tall weeds have grown in patches in the rough terrain in the foreground of the photo. Just beyond these weeds, a river runs at the base of the badlands. At the left of the photo, the badlands are stratified, showing darker color toward the bottom and lighter color at the top. The badlands on the right have some stratification toward the bottom. These badlands have a weathered, rocky texture. Handwriting is below the photograph.
