The eastbound Zephyr wraps through the 10° curve of Little Ten Curve near the west end of Rocky. Up until the early 1980s, the west switch of Rocky as at the start of the curve to the left of the frame. At that point in time, there was only a single track wrapping around Little Ten Curve.

The Zephyr glides through the curve on the main amidst a field of green under a blue sky filled with non-threatening clouds.
