Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[Bilsch]

Just a stab in the dark to get things going...
Somewhere near Wind River Canyon, Wyoming ?

 

[MaxStout]

Not Wind River, not Wyoming.

BTW, Wind River is an awesome drive through for those heading west on the way to the Tetons. Many people overlook it.

 

[arturo7]

Western US?

 

[MaxStout]

Yep, west of the Mississippi.

 

[MaxStout]

And east of the Rockies.

No more hints until I get some more guesses.

 

[applescrap]

Scots bluff

 

[MaxStout]

Not Scottsbluff, but it's a place with similar terrain.

 

[GnenieGone]

California National Historic Trail, Nebraska

 

[MaxStout]

It's not in Nebraska.

 

[leftcontact]

Las Cruces, NM?

 

[MaxStout]

Not Las Cruces. Farther north.

Not Las Cruces. Farther north.

Truth or consequences?

 

[MaxStout]

Much farther north. Not in NM.

Pic was taken in a nat'l park.

 

[SteveH aka shetc]

That picture is so old, that park probably doesn't exist anymore

 

[Rodent]

is that a lake running thru the middle of the image?

if not a lake, some other type of body of water?

it's near impossible to determine what this is actually an image of on my screen - it could simply be a streak of light paint running down a dark surface for all I can tell

 

[Bilsch]

Badlands national park ?

 

[homebrewer_99]

Badlands national park ?

More like Bad Picture NP... (sorry, I couldn't help myself).

But, yeah, it could be the Badlands or the hoodoo's in Bryce Canyon.

 

[MaxStout]

It's Badlands NP.

 

[Bilsch]

I flew over that place a couple times and remember thinking I'd rather lose the engine over shark infested water because that way at least you'd have a chance.

Anyway here we go..

Lowell, MA

 

[Upthewazzu]

That's Spokane, WA. The Old Flour Mill, specifically.

 

[Bilsch]

Ding ding ding... we have a winner. Spokane, home of Das Stein Haus!

 

[Upthewazzu]

probably a little too easy...

 

[GnenieGone]

Boston

 

[Upthewazzu]

Boston

Negative

 

[homebrewer_99]

Well, (to me) it looks like mid-1800's Midwest architecture...with a city grown up around it. I can't recall the last time I saw parking meters.

Our County Courthouse looks similar, but it sits on it's own block...the entire block...and no parking meters.

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

Portsmouth, NH

 

[Upthewazzu]

Portsmouth, NH

Nope.

Maybe this is a little more challenging than I thought...

 

[SteveH aka shetc]

Salt Lake City

 

[homebrewer_99]

Nope.

Anywhere near where you live?

The white church tower reminds me of New England church style belfries.

Compton, CA?

 

[Upthewazzu]

Compton, CA?

Not in California, NH, Utah, or Mass.

 

[arturo7]

Compton, CA?

Seriously, Compton?

 

[jack13]

Montpelier, VT

What makes this image location easy?

 

[Upthewazzu]

It's not in New England.

I haven't seen every single post in this thread, but given that most folks have moved on to posting pictures of generic desert landscapes I assumed that by posting an actual skyline it might be a little too easy.

(IMO), my pictures were of actual places of interests that I've visited...now all we're getting are views from hotel rooms.

If we get any lower someone will be submitting pictures of their toe nail clippings...and we're supposed to guess the city where it happened.
