Another day, another storm!
And another day I had planned to get back to those mountains you see there!
Ha ha!!

Personification of Spain!

I was amazed when I saw the outline of a map of Spain through this rock window! OK, it's not a perfect outline but you couldn't get much better!

Normally home to many Griffon vultures but they were all out as I clambered over it. An oldie but still a favourite as it gives a good feel for the spectacular granite forms. I 'note' where the vultures usually like to hang out.
La Sierra de La Cabrera. Unsure if posted on ipernity previously.

Where I had planned to walk today and catch the last of the spring flowers. But today was just about the wettest June day on record so I ventured nowhere near! But I hope to get up there fairly soon, and before the relentless summer heat kicks in, which it will do in a week or two! This shot was a taken at midsummer but here, high up, it is still showing Spring wildflowers so I still have some hope!

La Sierra de La Cabrera - HANWE everyone!

An oldie and a winter shot. Bitterly cold. This shows much of the taller western end of the Sierra.
I hope to return here before too long.
Better on large for granite detail.

Everywhere was stonecrop underfoot

I couldn't help but trample them, there were so many - but I reckoned they were tough little buggers so I soon stopped worrying about my foot placement!
La Sierra de La Cabrera, granite.
Better on large to see this hardy plant en masse.

La Sierra de La Cabrera. I recall it as a perishingly cold January day!

Another good old granite extravaganza!
Maybe on large and then on large again for the detail in the granite features.
It's conceivable that I've posted this before but more likely back on Panoramio.

(The needles of Cancho Gordo). La Sierra de La Cabrera granite. I don't think I've posted this on ipernity: certainly on Panoramio. I'm looking forward to getting up there again after a l o o o n g five year absence (for a whole variety of reasons).

"Are we rockin' today, dear?" ... It seemed to fall on stone-deaf ears!

Cancho Largo, Sierra de La Cabrera. Granite country. Great hill walking and scrambling to be had here.
