- A large woven tapestry featuring a central image of figures in ornate european 17th century clothing on a dias facing a large Bison. Around the Bison are other animals: a mule deer, a raven and crow, a magpie, and a squirrel. 4 other black birds are on the bison’s shoulders and another bird is on it’s rump. The ground is a geometric tiled floor and Cascade mountain rises up in the background. In the sky a small helicopter can be seen long lining. This scene is edged in gold thread with a thick blue border full of flora and fauna of the rockies. The bottom two corners have scrollwork, framing “SUMMIT” over a row of pink flowers in bottom centre.

There are small islands covered with yellow grass in the river. Trees surround the river and grassy area creating a line as they visually connect when the river bends to the left. In the background, above the trees, is a mountain which takes up half of the piece. The right side of the mountain is in shadow. The sky is painted with a light blue wash, and is occupied with light clouds. Where the sky meets the mat at the top of the piece, a small piece of sky pokes through the clouds and is cropped by the mat.
