Caption: A nearby, additional marker on Geography and Climate of the area
Additional Description: This additional marker is at about the halfway point on the walk up to the site. It reads:


Geografía y Clima
Frente a usted se observa, al fondo, una gran barrera de montañas; se trata del macizo donde se asienta el poblado de Pinal de Amoles. Este macizo, al igual que la loma donde usted se encuentra, son de los de mayor altura; por eso las nubes, el viento y la lluvia chocan formando un clima frío, húmedo, neblinoso y templado. El fondo de las cañadas de la Sierra es seco, caluroso, esto es semidesértico. Por ejemplo, a su derecha, atrás de las montañas, se encuentra el Valle del Mezquital, Hidalgo, que es una región semidesértica.

English:
Geography and Climate
From here one can see in the distance a great wall of mountains and the village of Pinal de Amoles. Both the site of this village and the ridge on which you stand are the highest parts of the range and therefore the most exposed to passing clouds, wind and rain, all which combine to form the cold, humid and foggy conditions of the temperate clima found there. The bottoms of the canyons of the mountain range are hot and dry, making them semi-arid. To the right behind the mountains one finds the Valley of the Mezquital in the state of Hidalgo, a semi-desert region.
