The first ray of morning tries to breech a tangle of virgin forest. It skips and dances its illumination across the moving shadow - shapes of a frontier family. Horses appear ready and are being packed for a long day of travel. The fire is being extinguished. They are breaking camp to face the wilderness they'll call home.
