DescriptionView of several people on a large, sloping rock. The rock decends to the left, ending in a body of water that is probably Lake Terramuggus. Two young women stand on the rock in the center of the image, smiling at the camera. A third sits on the rock just behind them, also smiling. A boy is climbing up the rock behind her, and his head is turned to smile at the camera as well. A fourth woman can be seen standing to the right, but her face is off frame. The rock backs up to a large shrub.
