Description

Image depicting an immense agglomeration of ice and snow in front of the Market Buildings in Montreal. Five people are perched atop the mound while two others stand in front of it, chatting as a dog plays around them. In the distance, what seems to be a person on skis (or snowshoes) is visible.
The mount of the secondary support seems to have sustained much damage; it is nearly non-existant.
