The Alabama Hills, Part One (August 27, 2021)

Hundreds of films, mostly Westerns, have been made in the Alabama Hills, a rocky wasteland at the base of the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains.  One of the geographic features is the Mobius Arch.  Papa Tom is on the trail.
Mt. Whitney, the highest mountain in the Lower 48 at 14,505 feet, towers over the Alabama Hills.  The smoky haze is from wildfires in Northern California.
The Mobius Arch very artistically frames Mt. Whitney. And P. Tom! 
Surrounded by silence and open air invites short meditation.

We had to scramble up the rocks to sit inside the arch.
