Lone Pine Peak and Mount Whitney from Alabama Hills, Lone Pine, California
Landscape photograph of the majestic Mount Whitney from the Alabama Hills near Lone Pine California. Used frequently as a setting for movies, especially Westerns, the Alabama Hills are part of California’s Owens Valley. Rounds and soft forms and tones of the potato shaped rocks of the Alabama Hills contrast in color and form with the jagged blues and greys of Sierra Nevada mountain range of which Mount Whitney is a part. Lone Pine Peak stands in the foreground left of the image. On the left of Mount Whitney is Wotan’s Throne with Mount Russell and Mount Carillon to the right. The tallest mountain in the contiguous United States, Mount Whitney stands at 14,505 feet (4421.0 m)
