label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing a view of a road in the mountainous terrain of Ecuador. Steps are shown at lower left, which transition into a dirt road that extends into the middle distance at center. The road seems to cut a wedge out of the nearby hillside, which is covered in dense vegetation. In the background at right, rugged mountain ridges overlap one another as they extend into the distance.
