Jezreel Valley Viewed from Mt. Carmel Where Elijah's Altar Stood
Photo taken from Mt. Carmel in the area that Elijah would have had his altar.
This picture is looking Southeast. There are three routes though these foothills of Mt. Carmel. One is seen along the valley below going off the right side of the photo. The other two are further south. These are the three routes that travels, traders and soldiers would have used through out history. (Notice the dirt road.)
This is the same view as above (you can see the same dirt road) but I have turned towards the left for a little more of the view to the east.
The "V" shape from the two roads to the left middle of the picture is the Israeli airforce base.
Again, this is the same view but a little more to the left or turning towards the north looking east from Mt. Carmel. The "V" or airforce base is to the right of the picture.
This is the Jezreel Valley. Many of the great battles of history have been fought here. Much of Israel's grain comes from this valley.
The road going to the right off the picture is the main route to the north of Carmel to the Mediterranean coast.
This is looking north and northeast of Mt. Carmel. The road that runs right to left across the photo runs through the pass to the coast. This route has always been used for trade routes and military movements in the area.
