In this color photograph taken on November 1, 1969 in Vail, Colorado, we see three individuals from the Wister family participating in skiing. The mother and daughter are wearing hats; both women wear a dark navy-blue sweater with white detailing while the girl wears pink detailing around her neck that matches her hat.

The father is seen on their left side of photo - he's clad in an older style winter beanie, his blue-and-white-striped jacket contrasting against the background. All three people are looking off to one direction as if they're observing something or someone beyond what we see within this frame; perhaps another skier descending down a slope.

The snowy landscape behind them is vast and bright with white dominating due to snow covering everything in sight - trees, ground, tracks left by previous skiers. The background gives us an impression of cold but clear weather conditions typical for skiing during that season or time zone given the visibility and brightness present here.
