As of July 1, 2013 I am completely revising this blog and the next one with new pictures and a video.
This is probably my favorite find. It was the one I had been searching for from the first time I starting hunting locations in the Alabama Hills. In the movie, The Tall T with Randolph Scott, he is captured and taken to this area. The outlaws, Richard Boone and Henry Silva, use this area as their hideout. The main rock formation in this picture can be climbed to overlook the area. Henry Silva climbs up it at one point of the movie to look around. In the following picture you can see where the small hideout would have been in the middle of the picture.

The Tall T is a damned good movie. The boy and his dad being thrown down the well never made sense, especially in the west.
A couple of days ago gave it some more thought. Maybe it was a metaphor, these people turn anything useful into something useless. they were users, and nothing could be worse than ruining a good well.
