This photograph was taken along Movie Flat Road in Alabama Hills in California. There are beautiful views all throughout Alabama Hills but to reach this exact spot, you'll want to start your trip in Lone Pine California and head west out of town on Whitney Portal Road. Once you turn onto Whitney Portal Road from Main St, continue for 2.7 miles and then turn right onto Movie Flat Road. Continue on Movie Flat Road for about 2.1 miles and there will be a pullout on your left. Park here and step out of the car and you'll be at this view.
