Local photographer Richard Massey took a trip recently to the Mobius Arch in the Alabama Hills near the Eastern Sierra area of Mount Whitney and the town of Lone Pine in the Owens Valley.
Per Wikipedia “The Alabama Hills are a range of hills and rock formations near the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada in the Owens Valley, west of Lone Pine in Inyo County, California. Though geographically separate from the Sierra Nevada, they are part of the same geological formation.”
The Mobius Arch is named after a Mobius strip :
Richard Massey wrote, “The last time Robin and I were in the Alabama Hills one of our goals was to get the standard tourist shot of Mt. Whitney from under Mobius Arch as the first morning light was just hitting the tops of the distant mountains. We headed down the 1/4 of a mile long trail at about 4 in the morning to beat the usual crowd.”
