Kristina Pålsson, Jerry Pry, Renato Gaudio, Chuck Moulton and
me all have pictures of this curve. Together, the pictures span about
60 years.

In each of these cases, the photographer is standing on a bridge looking
into the Dorfur Valley. Rob Dickinson has a map
of this area on his site from James L. Woodward. This bridge
is marked on that map as just after the highway bridge at Devil's Doors.
Further down the hill, the picture below was taken. As Charles was
on bicycle, this is not too distant from the previous picture.

It is interesting to note that there is little difference in the vegetation
between my picture (above) and Chuck Moulton's (below). What little
difference is present could be accounted for by the changes in the seasons.
It looks like his was taken just before the rainy season....if I remember
right, there wasn't much of a rainy season when he was there.

I never knew the name of this place until I saw Jerry
Pry's pictures. By the time my watch came around, we called this area
Python Valley.
