El Médano and Pico del Teide

WI_ctf828.jpg

View from Montaña Bocinegro in NW direction to Pico del Teide (3715 m). As the trade winds predominantly approach the island from NE direction, this S part of Tenerife is located in the rain shade of the Teide massif, and therefore characterized by arid conditions.
