Scene in Manitou Springs, Colorado, looking southeast down Canon Avenue. The Cliff House (a three story frame building with open wrap around porch and balcony, hipped gable roof, and a widows's walk) is in the center beside two frame residences, both two-story and gable roofed. In the foreground are scrub, rock, and a rail fence, on this side of which sits two boys, one in suspenders and beanie hat, one with a large straw hat. Rail fence lines the dirt avenue; Red and Iron Mountains are in the background.
