Eight Army mules with U.S. brands and ten Tenth Mountain Division mule drivers ford a creek. Four mules carry riders; the other four bear fully loaded pack saddles. The men wear caps not helmets. Once across the creek, the mules begin climbing a trail. The area is wooded and deciduous trees have budding leaves.
