Kleesilageelauck, the son of sun, went to visit his father but in doing so pushed the clouds (his aunts) around. The sun's hot rays cracked the mountains (shown here as black U-forms), Kleesilageelauck's uncles. Sun became angry, scolded his child, and threw him back to earth. Smith's print shows the sun, the cracked mountains, and the errant Kleesilageelauck.
