Reserva Nacional Los Flamencos, view over part of the largest salt flat in Chile in NE direction. Volcán Licancabur (5920 m) and Volcán Juriques (5704 m) are shown in the background of the photo. Their temporary snow cover is the consequence of a specific weather pattern known as invierno altiplánico.
