| On our drive from the Calama airport to San Pedro de Atacama, we stopped at an overlook just outside San Pedro to view the Salt Mountains. |

On our last day in the Atacama we had a late afternoon tour to the Valley of the Moon (Valle de la Luna) in the Salt Mountains just west of San Pedro.

| The salt in bricks used to make houses. You know it's dry when your bricks contain salt! |
 |
| Evaporites. |
 |
| Abandoned salt mine. |
 |
| Salty rocks |
 |
| Looking down the valley - classic view. |
 |
| Layered cliff. |
 |
| Sunlight on sand dune. |
 |
| Rocks and dunes. |
 |
| Sunlight on dune - redux. |
