Black and white photo. Tipsoo Lake, seen from the shore, surrounded by a thin layer of snow, from which short grass pokes through in many places. The far shore is lined with tall dark evergreens. Beyond, on the right, snow-capped Mount Rainier rises above the trees. Above it are streaks of wispy cloud. On the left, the sky is dominated by forming lenticular clouds, their edges glowing from the unseen sun behind them. The trees, mountain and clouds are reflected in the lake, only slightly disturbed by shallow ripples.
