Alluvium and mountain slopes, right view, July 23, 1947
Mountain slopes of northern Okinawa, with rice paddies in the foreground and crops of sweet potatoes, millet, and taro on the terraces. Description provided by photographer Roy Simonson reads: "View to the right from the same point as H5. Rice paddies go up the slope to the clump of bananas, and dry-land crops cover terraces above that point. The forest on the crest is on shallow soils from cherty limestone, clay slates, and cherts."
