A winding road enters the scene from the base of the canvas in the center. It curves to the right before weaving off into the distance to the left. A large, light-colored mesa rises from the right side of the work, its hills sloping down towards the left. Several trees dot the landscape in the foreground, and the sky appears hazy.
