Description
Golden late afternoon light makes the Atacama Desert near San Pedro de Atacama in northern Chile glow with a gorgeous orange color. The rock formations in the foreground are part of the Cordillera de Sal range of hills. The mountains are the conical Licancabur (5915m / 19,410ft) and Juriques (5705m / 18,715ft) volcanos on the Bolivian border. The Atacama Desert stretches for over 1000km between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes and is the world's driest and probably oldest desert. In some areas rain has never been recorded, geological research suggests the region has been continuously arid for many millions of years.
