DESIGN
The reverse image by Canadian artist Greg Banning features an outdoorsman and his husky portaging along the Yukon River. On the left side of the image, the smiling man carries a canoe on his shoulders, facing the viewer. Standing just in front of him is his dog, whose back is turned to the viewer. The dog gazes across the river toward the right side of the image where, on the opposite bank, a large elk stands on a towering outcrop of rocks. Behind the elk, a coniferous forest rises toward distant mountains.
