El Perro Negro

Grumpy old mountain man living in Spain

Images from our Tabernas desert hike last Friday. I never fail to be inspired by this landscape and can see why it is used so much by the movie industry, set only some 25km inland from Almeria city.

3 people stand at the entrance to an arid valley with broken rock and loose boulders

Arid mountain scenery in shadow with a sunlit vertical rock face to the right

3 people hike down a wide "rambla" (valley) with sandy rock walls above and to the left and straight ahead

Cerro Alfaro peak is on the far right of the image. Closer, to the left in the foreground is a broken overhanging rock wall which was used for the tank scene in the movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark"
