DescriptionTwo men and a woman lead a long file of people walking on a shoveled path between banks of snow. The man on the left is probably Frank Dexter Cheney, Sr. (1878-1955). The woman is Alice "Cass" Cheney (1870-1969) and the other man is Clifford Dudley Cheney (1877-1948). Most people appear to be wearing winter clothing, including hats, gloves or mittens, sweaters, and boots. Trees are in the background. On the verso of the mount is another photograph of a man, possibly Russell Cheney, standing beside a porch with a vine growing on it.
