La Pena de Bernal


In the center of Mexico is one of the worlds largest monoliths.  It is a solid rock that is nearly 1500' tall.  This area of Mexico is full of interesting locations to hike and photograph.  We climbed to the top of this rock on a perfect winters day when the temperatures were just right for such and adventure.  The little town of Bernal is a great destination for those that want to make trips up into the mountains to the north.  We spent a few days exploring around in the mountains and found some wonderful waterfalls and mountain streams to photograph.  Mexico has a lot of wilderness to explore and in our seven months of traveling the back roads we only saw a small portion of what the country has to offer.  Mexico has a reputation of violence and danger for travelers. We travel with a few set rules and have only been met with friendly people and great food. We never travel at night and we stay away from the border area where much of the problem exist. Our hopes are that we can go back again and do some more exploring around this fascinating country.
