DescriptionA man on a motorcycle is seen from behind as he speeds up a sagebrush covered hill kicking up dirt behind the back tire. Two additional men who are walking up the hill are seen in the background. The hill itself creates a sharp diagonal line in the composition, which sharply divides earth and sky. There is a handwritten inscription in blue ink on the bottom margin that reads: "Surber" [?]
