Monkey quest: Textured

We took a day trip with a group of friends out to this area, which I think was east of Riyadh, to see monkeys, probably baboons, which somebody had seen there before in large numbers. Unfortunately we didn’t encounter any wildlife, but had a nice time visiting and driving around in search of the elusive critters.

A wonderful vantage point showing the great textured rock formations, a shame you didn't get to see the baboons. V
