This picture was taken in the Alabama Hills nar Lone Pine. Besides this fabulous scenery, Lone Pine is famous as a movie filming location. Thousands of cowboy films, sci-fi flicks and other productions have been filmed in the country around town.

Film buffs should consider a stop at the movie-making museum, and if you're a die-hard fan of Westerns, try their annual Film Festival held every October.
