I made this on my first backpacking trip into Kluane National Park, Yukon. It shows the confluence of three rivers: the Dezadeash, flowing in from the left, the Kaskawulsh, flowing in from the right, and the Alsek, meandering away into the distance. Muddy, silty, glacier-spawned northern rivers! And the scale of everything, so vast. I spent a year in Whitehorse, and made half a dozen subsequent trips to poke my lens into the Yukon wilderness throughout the 1980s. Amazing country.
