DescriptionFour people stand at a wire fence and look out over Valle Grande (now in Valles Caldera National Preserve) near Los Alamos, New Mexico. The volcanic caldera is in the Jemez Mountains, which are in the background. The people have their backs to the camera and a man in a suit is pointing out toward the valley. There are editing marks in black grease pencil on the upper third of the frame.
