For readability, I display the pages on top of each other rather than side-by-side (book format). Chapters and sections begin on even pages (left side) with introductory photos. Title pages begin on odd pages (right side).
To see the book layout, reduce the percentage in the title bar below to about 50. Then click the three dots in the title bar (right side) and select “Two page view.”
View northeast: The southwest sector of Upper Galilee as described on page 52. Notice the deep ravines alongside a flat cultivatable area.
View west: The mountains and valleys of Upper Galilee directly north of the Beit Hakerem valley, which separates Upper and Lower Galilee.
The Horshat Tal National Park preserves a grove of Mt. Tabor Oak trees, which once covered much of Upper Galilee and the Golan. See “Upper Jordan Valley” in Blessed Pilgrimage, vol. 2.
View north: This photo was taken east of Mt. Halutz in the southeast sector of Upper Galilee. The terrain makes traveling through Upper Galilee nearly impossible except along a few well-established routes.
View north: A stand of smaller oak trees. This photo was taken on the ridge south of Nahal Keziv. These trees are not the Tabor Oaks pictured on page 48 (bottom photo)
View southeast: This photo was taken from Yehiam fortress in the southwest sector of Upper Galilee, east of modern Nahariya on the northern coast of Israel (see “Yehiam Fortress” on page 73).

A spring pouring into Nahal Keziv as you climb up the eastern end.
View east: This photo was taken at the bottom of the Nahal Keziv canyon on the other side of the sloping, v-shaped ridges visible in the top photo on page 53.
View northwest: Nahal Keziv, about 1.3 miles (2 kilometers) east of the Crusader castle of Montfort and 3 miles (4.8 kilometers) west of the Israeli town of Abirim, located on the ridge above the canyon.
View west: This photo was taken from the Montfort Castle overlooking the lower end of Nahal Keziv (see “Montfort Castle” on page 69). The dense vegetation and ravines are typical of Upper Galilee.
View West: Tel Kedesh (center, green mound), and part of the area described by Thomson in the Northeast Sector. For more on Kedesh, see “Kedesh of Naphtali” on page 61.
View east: This photo was taken above Tel Kedesh overlooking the cultivable plain around it on three sides. The Golan Heights are visible (top) with the Upper Jordan below them (not pictured).
View southeast: This photo was taken in the southeast sector of Upper Galilee where it overlooks the upper jordan Valley, south of Ramot Naftali, an Israeli Moshav not far from the Lebanese border.
View northeast: This photo was taken from Mt. Meron. The town of El-Jish (upper right; ancient Gischala or Gush Halav) overlooks the plateau with Mt. Hermon in the background (top right).
View north: Nahal Amud runs from Safed along the eastern edge of Upper and Lower Galilee down to the Sea of Galilee, bordering the three divisions of Galilee. For perspective, see the person on the trail.
