Description

Distant view of a worker pushing a cart of lumber up a stretch of railroad tracks in Mono Mills. Along the bottom edge, wood planks and a railroad track rail stretch across the image. Behind it and to the left, a lone pine stands. Up a slight slope, a track stretches across the image in the distance. A man at center pushes a cart along the tracks towards the left. A brush-covered slope rises on the far side of the tracks and pines line the top of the slope in the distance.
