A woman, identified as Nettie Hawn, rides a bucking horse in a rodeo competition at the Pendleton Roundup. She wears a dark long-sleeved shirt, belt, skirt, and boots. She holds a rope attached to the bridle of the rearing horse. An individual is partially visible directly behind Nettie. In the distance are flags, and a large crowd of spectators in bleachers. The crowd is out of focus.
