Photograph of a view of the cliffs at Santa Monica's Palisades Park from a car tract, [s.d.]. The steep cliffs run across the image from the foreground at right to the background at left. The faces of the cliffs are bare stone, while the bases are overgrown with thick foliage. The tops of the cliffs are lined with trees, and there is a circular wooden fence near the edge of the bluff at left. A line of utility wires runs parallel to the cliffs in the foreground.
