We are looking westwards from above Veličná in the Orava river valley. On the left, we see the peak of the Šíp (1170 m) in the area between the Orava and the Váh. The ridges of the Malá Fatra with the far-off Vel'ký Rozsutec are to the right, in accordance with traces of the inscriptions along the upper edge. - Bibliography: Ružomberok. - For information on Orava river, see:
