Photograph taken during a family trip to Canada and Washington state showing the Paradise Inn at Mt. Rainier, a wooden lodge with a long porch and a stone chimney. Three cars are parked in front of the porch and a camera on a tripod stands on the right. A couple walks down the drive in front of the lodge and others relax on the porch, including three young men seated on a log fence.
