Image Caption: Most of the land surface and the clouds in the foreground of this westerly looking view are over the South American Andean Altiplano at the frontier between Chile and Argentina (26.5S, 66.5W). Chile is to the west near the top of the photo just beyond the dry salt lake (Salar de Arizaro) at the upper right. Very strong winds are picking up dust and blowing it to the SE across mountain mountain ranges into the Chaco Austral region of Argentina.
