Nineteen instructors from the 87th Mountain Infantry Regiment (re-enforced) stand at ease on their skis, or sit in a snow covered valley. One man practices a snow-plough stop. All are wearing caps, dark wool uniforms and shoe-packs. Snow covered mountains rise in the distance, near Paradise, Washington.
