Footage of him falling in the snow and climbing are intercut with images of a Christian stained glass window, solar flares, and a man and woman's genitalia. The mountain scenes are repeated at different exposures and in negative. Cut-out snowflake images are introduced, which re-appears in other parts of the series. 590 PFA 1612-01-2969. |aCONDITION NOTE: Last inspected: 03 Oct 1992; faded; pink; scratches; dirty; Fair condition: very faded; color pink in most parts; many scratches, a few continuous; dirt; lab head and tail leader tape-spliced on 655 7 Shorts.|2mim 655 7 Personal/independent films.|2mim 690 U.S. films. 700 1 Brakhage, Stan. 700 1 Wodening, Jane,|d1936- 935 GLADN50874413 941 0 PFA 1612-01-2969.
