This was about a 7 kilometer hike across the crater floor to Shen Ramon, a small mountain sticking out of the southern side. I was a bit worried about flash floods the whole time, as the dry riverbeds can supposedly turn into raging rivers in seconds, but it didn't happen. I would really like to watch one, from a safe elevation.
The only place you can see vegetation in the Makhtesh is in these dry desert riverbeds.
Camel mountain-a rock shaped like a kneeling camel coming out of the crater wall, with an observation platform on top. You can see the whole crater from the platform.

This is the mountain in front of Shen Ramon
