Very interested cliffs!Greetings,Gabi
Thank you Gabi. Cheers, Wim
Vreemd,,maar zeer apart!!! Lijkt alsof het maar heel klein is,maar dat zal wel niet zo zijn,,,is het vulkanisch??? Gr FRED
Wow Wim - nice cliffs, sheer, unforgiving but with interesting "steps" in them! Can you tell us anything more about the cliffs, where they can be found (above a river maybe), approx. how high, etc? Just curious!
Cheers, Hazel
Hoi Fred het was inderdaad ook niet zo hoog. Ik schat zo ongeveer een meter of tien maximaal. Maar het is niet vulanisch, maar echt 'Man made'. Alleen heeft de tand des tijds inmiddels zijn werk al gedaan in die oude steengroeve. Die inmiddels in een prachtige tuin is omgetoverd.
Fijn weekend, Wim
Hi Hazel of course I can. This is the 'old' part of the quarry. The 'steps' you refering at are actually the marks of the stone carved out of the Sandstone rocks. They are about eight to ten meters high, so not so high as in the new part of the quarry.
Cheers, Wim
Interesting this place Wim! Hope you will show us something else from this place!
Cheers, Mimi
One of the main objectives of my visit to Menorca Mimi. Its a very interesting place indeed. I always like man-shaped landscapes. And here are the marks of our ancestors. And they didn't have all the mechanical tools they have nowadays.
Here are a few other shots of the quarry.
Cheers, Wim
Many thanks Wim! Today I took a look at this place with Google Earth! Really interesting!
Cheers, Mimi
And there are lots of other photo's there too. Mini. Because of the high walls my GPS wasn't working very well. So sometimes I had to correct the postion a little bit from out of my memory. But in general it sure is the place were I was.
Cheers, Wim
Weer zo'n prachtige plaat van deze groeve Wim
Groetjes Nico
Dank je Nico Dit is het oude gedeelte. Je kunt zien dat de wanden hier met ander gereedschap zijn bewerkt. En het ziet er al mooi verweerd uit.
Groeten, Wim
