Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[Brewsmith]

There’s a plane in there fairly close so I’ll say somewhere near Anchorage

 

[pvpeacock]

Juneau and Mendenhall Glacier and Lake.

 

[InspectorJon]

It is Anchorage so @Brewsmith is up, bonus points to @pvpeacock for the name of the glacier.

 

[pvpeacock]

Point of order. Mendenhall Glacier is in Juneau. Anchorage is 843 miles away.

 

[Brewsmith]

Ok, here we go...

 

[tracer bullet]

Well... There's the Juneau / Anchorage question to resolve.

If it's actually resolved, @Brewsmith 's photo looks like northern New Mexico to me, where the flat lands meet the Rockies.

If not then never mind!

 

[Brewsmith]

Not quite New Mexico but not far off

 

[pvpeacock]

I will defer to Brewsmith to keep the game moving forward, but don't want anyone booking a vacation to Mendenhall Glacier based on this thread, flying to Anchorage and finding out that they are in the wrong city.

 

[InspectorJon]

Point of order. Mendenhall Glacier is in Juneau. Anchorage is 843 miles away.

My bad. it is Juneau, not Anchorage. Not sure what I was thinking. I took both pictures. The wife and I took a paddle wheel cruise ship out of Juneau for our 25th wedding anniversary. One of the best vacations ever.

After we returned to Juneau we rented a car and drove to the end of the road. We then turned around to the North and drove to the other end of the road. Later we drove over the bridge, went to the end of that road and then up to the ski area. Drove pretty much all the roads in Juneau that day.

 

[Brewsmith]

I was wondering if I should have gone. I figured since you said I was good to go i might as well turn it around quickly. Let’s get this one wrapped and hopefully get pvpeacock in.

So far we’re not in New Mexico...

 

[tracer bullet]

Southern Colorado?

 

[Brewsmith]

Not Colorado. Half of the four corner states have been eliminated.

 

[beermanpete]

Sonoita, AZ?

 

[Brewsmith]

Sonoita, AZ?

It is Arizona. Not on that end of the state, however.

 

[tracer bullet]

OK, so we have to figure out where in Utah.

Outside Provo?

 

[InspectorJon]

It is Arizona. Not on that end of the state, however.

Not a lot of grass in Arizona. I’m going to guess somewhere around Jacob Lake

 

[bracconiere]

Not a lot of grass in Arizona.

Say WHAT!!!???? i swear a drop a water falls from the sky, and i have to spray glyphosate like a mad man!

 

[bracconiere]

It is Arizona. Not on that end of the state, however.

so closer to prescott? i see a couple hay farms?

 

[Brewsmith]

Neither Jacobs Lake or Prescott, no matter how you pronounce it. The north and south ends of the state are out.

 

[bracconiere]

no matter how you pronounce it.

LOL

 

[DBhomebrew]

Show Low / Sitgreaves region?

 

[bracconiere]

85625

is in sunsites, az......


and @InspectorJon are still going to say there isn't grass in AZ!

 

[Brewsmith]

Show Low / Sitgreaves region?

No. Show Low is a cool town but it’s not remotely close.

 

[beermanpete]

Kingman?

 

[Brewsmith]

Not Kingman but we are at least getting closer. Too far north

 

[beermanpete]

Dateland?

 

[Brewsmith]

Now we are too far south and east

 

[DBhomebrew]

I'm thinking the west of Phoenix. White Tank, Wickenburg, etc. Big rodeo/cowboy country.

 

[Brewsmith]

Keep going west

 

[beermanpete]

Wenden?

 

[Brewsmith]

Further west still

 

[DBhomebrew]

Ehrenburg

 

[govner1]

Elgin, AZ

 

[Brewsmith]

Ehrenburg

We are so close. Go up the road a couple miles.

 

[govner1]

Sonoita

 

[Brewsmith]

Sonoita, AZ?

Sonoita

Still no Sonoita, even if you say pretty please with a cherry on top.

Ehrenburg

We are so close here

 

[govner1]

Blythe, AZ

 

[Brewsmith]

Blythe, AZ

Blythe is in California, Ehrenberg is on the AZ side of the river. Again, close, but just south.

 

[govner1]

Quartzite, AZ

 

[Brewsmith]

Quartzite, AZ

Wrong direction. North instead of East
