These ridges are on the right side of the road as we drop down into Nogal, NM. For each one it's like God dropped several pieces of cloth to form the ridges and valleys. On the left side of the road are the higher ridges of Nogal Peak and Sierra Blanca. There are actually three ridges, but I've only been told the name of the one farthest away. It was impossible to get close to the edge to take a photograph with fewer trees. Albert Schenck took the photograph that got me interested in it and I took a bunch of pictures to get more detail.
