The north face of Mulhacen 3482m and the highest mountain in mainland Spain.

![One of my favorite mountains, the Puntal de la Caldera 3223m. No so easy to ascend by any of it's slopes but the southern approach is easiest.

A twisted network of shadowed valleys leads to some sunlit upper snow slopes](/content/images/note-2024-04-12-1506/2635881ed15eac18.jpg)
