Coated in mountaineering gear and grayish-white alpine clothes, a bearded, appropriately mountainous man takes up most of this photo, with boots firmly planted upon a craggy ridge.
With the breath-taking view of a mountainside clad in winter's last vestiges resolving into the budding green landscape of what looks, suspiciously, like Switzerland blooming behind the climber, his paw-like hands are securely closed about the legs of a young boy sitting upon his shoulders.
Both child and hiker alike are flashing a pair of thumbs-ups towards the camera.
