Valle de la Luna is a part of the Reserva Nacional los Flamencos and was declared a Nature Sanctuary in 1982 for its natural environment and strange lunar landscape, from which its name is derived.
The Atacama desert is also considered one of the driest places on earth, as some areas have not received a single drop of rain in hundreds of years, but last week. A prototype for a Mars rover was tested there by scientists because of the valley's dry and forbidding terrains.

Gatehouse Range, Annesley c. 1838 Buildings including stables, a dairy and a coach house. They are in stone on chamfered plinths, with moulded eaves, and slate roofs with coped shaped gables and kneelers.
There are two storeys, and an L-shaped plan with a front of twelve bays. The windows are mainly cross windows and mullioned casements, and most of the doors have four-centred arched heads.
To the west is an arched carriage entrance, and there is a gatehouse with a moulded arch containing a clock, and an octagonal lantern with a wind vane. The viewpoint is from the graveyard of All Saints Church

A pair of my fellow hikers ignore the incoming storm and seek to name the many surrounding peaks that can be viewed from Mount Fremont and it's fire watch tower. From here I could see my recently visited Suntop and Kelly Butte watch towers. It was like the scene in LOTR where they perched to light signal fires across the lands.

DMIR 402 and 409 hustle a northbound ID pellet train through Biwabik, MN with 116 cars to load at Minntac back on June 29, 2004. Searchlights were still over all the place on the former Missabe. It's the former Missabe as CN took over the property the month before.
Last month, CN finally took out of service the last of the searchlights on the Iron Range Sub. between Allen Jct. and Iron Junction, including these here at South Biwabik.
Both the 402 and 409 still work the former DMIR albeit in CN paint. CN has spent the time and money to put PTC on both tunnel motors so maybe they'll continue to roam northeast Minnesota for many or a few more years?

We are looking west from the Haines Highway towards the Alsek Ranges and British Columbia's Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park. The park is located in the very northwestern corner of British Columbia, bordering the American state of Alaska and the Canadian Yukon Territory. It is part of the largest international park system in the world. The forecast looked good, yet the clouds never really lifted. It was still a wonderful place to boondock and admire the wildflowers of the subalpine meadows.
The Ruahine Range is the largest of several mountain ranges in the North Island of New Zealand that form a ridge running parallel with the east coast of the island between East Cape and Wellington.

While walking along the Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes area of Death Valley National Park. The setting is looking to the northeast and across the many dunes ridges to my front with the scattered bushes and plant-life.

Yellow-rumped Warbler is pretty much on a par with Yellow Warbler in terms of the geographical extent of its breeding range, being found in most treed areas of the North American continent. Still, it is a treat to appreciate the colours of this species wherever and whenever. I took the image of this individual on the last day of our Nova Scotia trip, at Porters Lake Provincial Park in Halifax County.
