Lone Pine
Lone Pine
When you look at a mountain, it is difficult to fathom its size. There's a feeling in the mind, one of sheer scale, that soothes, humbles, and bewilders. These behemoths sit, unphased by any observer. But they are not static. Clouds will flow in and out and up and over, shifting around the monolithic shapes. Rain will carve shapes and flows and the Earth itself will move beneath. These mountains in the Dolomites are strangely shaped, but it all makes sense when you consider that they used to be coral reefs! A long, long time ago, this whole landscape was underwater and early corals grew up to the surface and spread out, forming flat tops. When the alps formed, these atolls rose up into the sky and were slowly eroded over time to form the plateaus common to this region.
I took this photo during my unplanned solo hike through this region, and was completely captivated by the way the clouds played with the mountain shapes.
