To the right of centre, the lower trunk of a large larch tree is visible. The trunk is outlined in black, and coloured brown and blue-grey (with touches of ochre and red-brown). In the upper half of the sketch, a few small branches, with brushstrokes indicating groups of yellow needles, are growing from the tree's trunk. In the middleground are groups of younger (smaller) yellow trees, with tall dark green evergreens behind them. Beyond the trees is a flat area coloured tan-green.
The foreground is predominant in this sketch, with dabs of bright red vegetation in the lower right quarter of the picture. Three groupings of trees, placed along a line in the upper half of the sketch, frame and divide the background into two sections. The left background section contains a peak w…
The foreground is predominant in this sketch, with dabs of bright red vegetation in the lower right quarter of the picture. Three groupings of trees, placed along a line in the upper half of the sketch, frame and divide the background into two sections. The left background section contains a peak with sunlight illuminating it from the left-hand side. The right background section contains a large white cloud, and a small triangular peak partially hidden by the grasses growing in the foreground.
View of a row of seven trees in the foreground with a valley beyond. The base of seven thin trees can be seen with dark brown bark becoming ochre-coloured near the trees' lower branches.

View of a row of seven trees in the foreground with a valley beyond. The base of seven thin trees can be seen with dark brown bark becoming ochre-coloured near the trees' lower branches. The trees' leaves are bright yellow. The trees cast shadows towards the viewer coloured grey-green, ochre and orange-red. The grass about the trees and in the valley is a yellow-green with touches of ochre, orange-red and grey-green. In the middleground, to the left of centre, zigzags a river (whose banks are defined by lines of brown and white). A forest of dark brown and dark green surrounds the river on the left and from behind. The background is an undefined area of green, indicating the base of the mountains lining the valley.
The foreground is a hill in colours of autumn, yellow and brown with green coniferous trees. In the background is a mountain range, blue with green trees on the lower slopes in the centre of the picture.

A brown cabin with white trim is in left centre, another building to the left of it. Mountain in the distance at centre right. Large evergreen trees beside the cabin. Billowy sky. A saddled brown horse is standing near a standing man in the right foreground.

View of a glacier beyond a rise of covered ground. In the foreground is an uneven hilltop covered in vegetation. Multi-coloured grasses (ochre, yellow-green, red-brown, dark brown), a group of dark evergreens (on the right), as well as, a solitary evergreen (on the left) are found on the hilltop. I…
View of a glacier beyond a rise of covered ground. In the foreground is an uneven hilltop covered in vegetation. Multi-coloured grasses (ochre, yellow-green, red-brown, dark brown), a group of dark evergreens (on the right), as well as, a solitary evergreen (on the left) are found on the hilltop. In the background is a wide valley with a large glacier. The glacier (coloured with white, grey, light blue and light brown) fills most of the lefthand side. The righthand side of the background contains a mass of dark grey and brown cliffs (with touches of grey-blue and ochre). Along the upper edge of the picture (above the glacier) are loose brushstrokes of blue, white, brown and blue-grey. These marks suggest distant cliffs among ice and clouds.
A row of yellow and lime green leaved trees create a line of colour behind an open field. The Sawbacks are located behind the treeline. The vein-like sculptural rock forms, rise high above the field. A cobalt blue sky creates a solid colour behind the mountains.

The foreground contains a bank of grass (coloured tan, ochre, green and brick-red), and a row of eleven tall trees with yellow foliage.

The foreground contains a bank of grass (coloured tan, ochre, green and brick-red), and a row of eleven tall trees with yellow foliage. On the left are three small black and green pine trees, and two are the right. The middleground contains stretches of bright blue water, and areas of ochre and green grass. Black is used to outline the base of the separate areas. Two blue mountains are hidden by the foreground trees. Their lower slopes are green, and a thin line of yellow forest is found at their base. The sky is light blue.
The great rock formation juts out of the lime coloured grass in the middle centre. Some large blue green evergreens create a natural barrier between the foreground and background. A smeared array of greens implies a deep forest beyond the rise in the foreground. The blue mountains stretch across th…
The great rock formation juts out of the lime coloured grass in the middle centre. Some large blue green evergreens create a natural barrier between the foreground and background. A smeared array of greens implies a deep forest beyond the rise in the foreground. The blue mountains stretch across the horizon line. Pale blue sky with low lying cloud cover dominates the top 1/3 of the sketch.

A rugged rocky cliff surrounded by evergreens is located along the shores of Lake O'Hara. It ranges in colour from purples to yellow and orange. Lake O'Hara is depicted in slid turquoise. The mountains appear overhead beyond the cliffs with cobalt blue peering through top centre.

The light and dark turquoise of Bow Lake is placed in the middleground. At the base of the picture, the lake is described by a horizontal stroke of light grey and by a number of vertical brushstrokes of turquoise. The vegetation in front of the lake, in the lower left and right corners, contains the same dark green, and light violet-grey found in the background. The violet-grey is used to indicate: the snow covering the dark violet-grey mountain on the right; the rock forming the more distant peak on the left; and a lighter tint of this colour forms the clouds in the upper left corner. A separate area of blue-grey clouds occupies the upper right corner.

View of a rolling valley with distant mountains. The foreground, located in the lower third of the sketch, contains a shallow valley of bright green grass. Forests of dark green grow on the sides of the valley, and encroach upon it. Towards the right side, mountain peaks are visible beyond the valley. The medium blue peaks have touches of white and brown-grey. The sky, filling the upper two-thirds of the sketch, contains: horizontal stretches of grey cloud; some lighter, rounded portions of pale grey-yellow clouds (with touches of pink); and a area of light blue sky, which shows through by the upper left corner.
View of Bow Lake, looking east towards Mount Hector in the distance. In the background are two mountains. The larger one on the right is coloured in grays: violet-grey, dark blue-grey and green-grey.

View of Bow Lake, looking east towards Mount Hector in the distance. In the background are two mountains. The larger one on the right is coloured in grays: violet-grey, dark blue-grey and green-grey. A large cloud sits above the mountain, hiding its summit. The smaller mountain on the left is a medium blue-grey. A second cloud floats in front of this mountain, though the summit is visible above the cloud. In the left foreground a tall tree frames the picture. Some grey stokes indicate dead branches about the base of the tree. The lake in the middleground has the reflection of the larger mountain, in slightly lighter tones than those found on the mountain. The upper part of the reflection is indicated with small vertical strokes, while horizontal strokes are found in the lower section.
A few small cabins can be seen huddled in amongst the trees to the left of the snowline in front Bow Lake is overpowered by the mountain peaks illuminating above it. Snow is visible among the cracks and crevices in foreboding slopes. A dark grey sky forecasts the arrival of a tremendous storm.

View of the Bow River looking west towards the Bourgeau range. The Bow River fills the foreground and disappears around a bend near the picture's centre. The reflections of trees, mountains and sky have been lightly sketched on the river's surface, with much of the pale beige ground showing through the paint. The river's banks have been outlined in black. A tall group of dark evergreens is located on the righthand bank, near the picture's centre; while a staggered row of trees can be seen in the distance on the left bank. The trees on the left bank are simply indicated by thin vertical brushstrokes of dark green paint. In the background a range of violet mountains can be seen. The mountains appear to recede into the distance since their details are blended rather than distinct.
