DescriptionThe vertical image depicts the Rim Trail in the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The dirt path extends away from the camera and curves to the right. The path is not smooth and shows signs of just having been cleared of trees as there are several fallen trees on either side of the path. A tree that has been completely stripped of branches and leaves stands alone at the point where the path curves to the right. Beyond this tree, the mountain drops away and provides a view of the land below the mountains.

"Dear Aocko, Sorry was only home when you were here. Having lovely weather here. We are very busy here in store. Always dread the holiday times coming on in much to do. Always glad to hear from you. Jess & Fred".
