This image shows the road running forward to a cut in the foreground through a snow slide originating on Pioneer Peak at right. A car is parked in that cut showing the snow depth to be as much as twenty feet. The Knik River bridge is visible in far middle ground at left and mountains in background beyond. Snow slides like this one have occurred at several locations along this part of the road over the years.
