Andy Rodker's photos with the keyword: holm oak

I think it can truly be called a fence, in a strictly minimalistic sense! From the Roman Road near El Escorial. This holm oak (encina in Spanish) is a pretty fine specimin imho! The skyline follows the crest of La Sierra de Guadarrama. I always had a soft spot for this gentle little pop song by this well known popular beat combo. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVwA5wVnwaE

This is connected with the next photo, with the climber tackling this massive rock from the other side. I got to the top once, in November 2010 but I haven't been able to find the scrambling route I took and I had no camera or camera phone back then. Here, this was as far as I was happy to go, short of climbing the tree and jumping aross from the top!
