Cordillera de la Sal before sunset

WI_ch339c_104.jpg

View from the Mirador de Kari over the Cordillera de la Sal in SE direction. This very young range of hills consists of a sequence of soft clastic and evaporitic sedimentary layers, which evolved in and around an ancient salt flat, and of some pyroclastic deposits. The entire package has been tilted and folded due to tectonic compression.
