Snow covers the rooftops and slopes in this aerial view, which sets it apart from most of the scenes on this board. The May 31, 1889 flood struck Johnstown in late spring, so this winter setting shows the town in a different season, one that is often where the record of rebuilding and daily life appears. Johnstown sits in a narrow valley where the Stony Creek and Little Conemaugh rivers meet, and its houses climb the surrounding hills, a layout that made the 1889 disaster so destructive when the South Fork Dam gave way upstream and a wall of water rushed down the valley.
