Description
This is a view of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and Alabama Hills at Sunrise. This spot offers a sharp contrast between the sandstone rock of the Alabama Hills, with the gray granite of the Sierras and Mount Whitney. At 14,505 feet, Mt. Whitney holds the distinction as the highest peak in the lower-48 states. The Alabama Hills, located west of Lone Pine, in California's Owens Valley is famous for its frequent use as a Hollywood filming location, particularly of old classic Westerns.
