Whale Rock

 
[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Whale Rock
This little formation is found in the Santa Ana Mountains at the base and in between of Avenaloca Mesa and Mesa de Colorado. De Luz Creek runs to the west of this formation. You can chimney up the gap seen in picture or use the crack on the south side.

Note: I never anticipated that this picture would get this much attention. I mainly posted it as an informative picture for the Santa Ana Mountains. It is a little of focus too! I guess you will never know what people like...

"I went to the woods becuase I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."   --Henry David Thoreau
