Y si lo miras y te resulta familiar, es porque es aquí exactamente donde se ubica la carretera en la que Forrest Gump dejó de correr tras varios años de hacerlo, y decidió dar la vuelta y volver a casa.
Se trata de Monument Valley, un valle ubicado en se encuentra exactamente en la milla 13 de la carretera 163 entre Arizona y Utah, en Estados Unidos.
Este tramo va desde Monument Valley al Mexican Hat y el paisaje es realmente espléndido, con formaciones rocosas de colores rojizos al fondo, en las que los elementos de la naturaleza esculpieron formas muy peculiares.
Back to my first solo trip to the American Southwest, which of course also included an extensive visit to Monument Valley, especially the well-known film locations.
I guess my Monument Valley album wouldn't be quite complete without Jill's "Yay" pic.... Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park - Arizona.
Monument Valley, USA.

As a little boy, I was a fan of John Wayne and have remained so to this day. The western films by director John Ford with John Wayne were a highlight for me at the time. In 1992 I was finally able to see this dream landscape from the films with my own eyes and I almost had tears. In 2012, during our second tour through the American Southwest, that had to happen again, of course. For me this landscape has something very special which naturally brings back memories of my childhood and that is something wonderful.

Als kleiner Junge war ich schon ein Fan von John Wayne und bin es bis heute geblieben. Die Westernfilme vom Regisseur John Ford mit John Wayne waren damals ein Highlight für mich. Im Jahr 1992 konnte ich endlich diese Traumlandschaft aus den Filmen mit eigenen Augen sehen und hatte fast Tränen. Im Jahr 2012, während unserer zweiten Tour durch den Südwesten der USA, mußte sich das natürlich wiederholen. Für mich hat diese Landschaft etwas ganz spezielles welche natürlich Erinnerungen an meine Kindheit hervorruft und das ist etwas wunderbares.
A Beautiful place to stop and enjoy the scenery. During the sunset or sunrise periods of the day, one can see spectacular colors in the sky. The redness of the rocks contrast the sky's behind it very well. Agatha Peak will not disappoint you.

We had a beautiful sunrise this morning and what is even more amazing is I was up in time to capture it! This was taken on the Colorado National Monument.
