Valley Bottom

View of a cultivated valley bottom.  This valley is south of Jerusalem in the Bethlehem region.  It slopes down from the upper right to the lower left portion of the image.  Note the limestone cliffs on the far side of the valley and the uncultivated slopes on the right side of the image.

In the valley (wadi/nahal) bottom note the series of dams behind which crops have been planted.
