El Perro Negro

Grumpy old mountain man living in Spain

Some images from yesterdays hike in the badlands of Tabernas, Almeria. A cold day but this made the skies crystal clear of either the heat haze or the Saharan dust that normally plague this area

A natural frame, well sort of natural. In fact this is a motorway bridge! But gives a nice framework for the interesting scenery behind

The rough and arid country leading to the peak of Cerro Alfaro

Typical scenery in the Tabernas desert. Arid badlands contrasting with vegetation in the "Ramblas". These palm trees were the scene for the oasis scene in Lawrence of Arabia

A huge loose wall of crumbling stone rears above two hikers on the path below and to the right
