Jack Dawe was out splitboarding in Grizzly Gulch in Little Cottonwood Canyon on a stormy January day when he came across this — a vintage snowcat parked and buried, storm still coming down, the cab windows frosted and loaded with snow.
People with homes up the Gulch use them for access. This one wasn't going anywhere today.
Shot head-on in black and white, it reads almost as a portrait — the machine weathered and stoic, indifferent to the conditions accumulating around it.
Every Distant Dawn print is professionally produced and custom framed, arriving ready to hang. This fine art photography print is printed on premium archival photo paper, built to hold the grain and quiet character of that stormy Utah afternoon on your wall.

Printing & Framing
At Distant Dawn, we take great care to produce a quality product. Every photograph is printed and framed in the USA.
We use archival luster photo paper mounted on an archival substrate that is protected by a sheet of 99% UV-blocking acrylic to resist fading. Our frames are solid wood and arrive ready to hang.
You're investing in photographs built to last – work worthy of your walls for decades to come.
Shipping
Orders ship within 5–7 business days. Transit time typically ranges from 3–7 days for continental US delivery. You'll receive tracking information via email as soon as your order ships.
Due to their size and FedEx handling requirements, our framed prints cannot be delivered to PO boxes.
Returns
All of our framed photographs are made to order based on your print size and frame choice. Due to the custom nature of our products, and the time and materials involved in their production, we do not offer returns.
Orders can be cancelled within 24 hours of placement for a full refund. After that window, we begin production immediately and cannot accept cancellations. If you have concerns about your order, contact us right away — we'll do everything we can to help.
