Description: An outside photograph of the Umatilla River. The river flows in a zig-zag pattern between two embankments and enters the photograph from behind the left embankment. The left embankment appears on the photograph at a high angle and gradually decends into flat terrain that runs into the river. The embankment and terrain display both cluster and single conifers, wild grasses, and dirt. The right embankment displays hilly terrain that displays single conifers and dark patches of dirt and grass. A bridge connects the embankments and can be seen in the distance. Hilly terrain is shown in the background with a gradual upward slope. The terrain displays clusters and single conifers, dirt, and wild grasses. The top of the photograph displays a large sky with clouds and mist or fog.
