On the next summit, ‘Veleta’ the second highest peak in the Sierra Nevada at 3,327 mts, there is a corral that is so exposed to the elements that even the most experienced mountain man cannot help but feel ‘vertigo’ on looking out. Here on the north east face is the Sierra Nevada ski station whose 50 kms of pistes obscure the ravages of earth moving and dramatic changes of direction of the original natural watercourses that were necessary to adapt the terrain and provide snow cannons, necessary for international level competitions.
