Friend and regular Tracking the Light reader Wayne Duffett challenged me yesterday to locate (and post) this photo of Southern Pacific’s BIG Jordan Spreaders plowing snow on Donner Pass.

I made the photo at Yuba Pass, California on the west slope of SP’s Donner crossing in March 1991. I was using my Nikon F3T with a 35mm PC (perspective control) lens fitted with a polarizing filter. My film of choice was Kodachrome 25.

Like many of my premium classic chromes, this one has appeared in print several times over the years.
