Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[tracer bullet]

Poston

 

[bracconiere]

Parker?

 

[Brewsmith]

I’m going to give it to tracer bullet. Poston is the closest town. Ehrenberg is just further south. The photo was taken on the Colorado River Indian Reservation a few miles south of Poston. It was right before sunrise hunting on the second day of dove season. The alfalfa field is at the edge of the farms where they meet the desert.

@tracer bullet you’re up!

 

[tracer bullet]

Woohoo. I roamed the google street view and figured it was pretty close but couldn't quite find the mountains that looked quite like that.

Next up:

 

[govner1]

Mount Fuji

 

[tracer bullet]

Not Mt. Fuji, Not Japan! Pretty far from there in fact.

 

[bracconiere]

i was going to throw out india.....

edit:Andaman islands?

 

[tracer bullet]

Not India or the Andaman Islands (which I'd never heard of until now).

The picture is taken even farther away from Japan than is India.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Spanish colony? Guatemala?

 

[tracer bullet]

Much closer! Correct land mass, if that's the right term. Might not be. Let's say it is in the Americas.

 

[Brewsmith]

Mt. Cotopaxi Ecuador

 

[tracer bullet]

Excellent guess, but no. Not Ecuador.

 

[InspectorJon]

With respect to @pvpeacock I submit:
Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, Cholula, Puebla, Mexico

I will yield the next post to him since I cheated him out of one a couple rounds back.

 

[tracer bullet]

Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, Cholula, Pueblo, Mexico

Indeed!

Looks like @pvpeacock is up.

 

[bracconiere]

(good ol enrique going to get some air play for a while, had too....)

 

[pvpeacock]

Thank you for your kindness and sorry I did not see this earlier. Here you go.

 

[Brewsmith]

French/Swiss Alps?

 

[pvpeacock]

Not the Alps, French or Swiss.

 

[InspectorJon]

Are we in the state of Utah? That reminds me of the view out of the cruse ship window when we were in Alaska, except the ocean is missing.

 

[pvpeacock]

Not Utah. Not a cruise ship, but it is Alaska.

 

[Brewsmith]

Girdwood Alaska, Alyeska Resort

 

[pvpeacock]

Bingo. The view from the Seven Glacier's restaurant at Alyeska.

 

[Brewsmith]

I have friends in the Anchorage area. I need to get up there.

Ok, here we go.

We are going to change the topography drastically here...

 

[Pkrd]

The Netherlands

 

[Brewsmith]

Not the Netherlands

 

[Brewsmith]

I’ll bump it with a hint. Not in Europe

 

[bracconiere]

i mean there's not much to go by besides, probably a field somewhere in the dust bowl....

edit: and i'll add a question, are those 5 grain silos in the background, in a line?

 

[bracconiere]

with a pic like that, "rural midwest" should be good......i'm trying to track down grain silos that match up....but none of my googling gives names, where they are....

 

[bracconiere]

wait, michigan?

 

[Brewsmith]

Your first guess is not bad. Dust bowl is too far south but rural Midwest is correct.

 

[beermanpete]

North Platte, Nebraska?

 

[Brewsmith]

It is in Nebraska, but the photo is further west

 

[DBhomebrew]

Along the North Platte?

 

[Brewsmith]

Not along either Platte, North or South

 

[cmac62]

Ellsworth looks like it is in the middle of nowhere. LOL

 

[Brewsmith]

Ellsworth looks like it is in the middle of nowhere. LOL

A further southwest Middle of nowhere.

 

[bracconiere]

being this is a homebrew forum, and no one guessed it? and a rail way goes through it, which would be required for those silos(?), "Palmer"?

 

[Brewsmith]

We need to go much further west

 

[beermanpete]

Brownson?

 

[InspectorJon]

Not on the river and west of North Platte. I'm going with La Grange, Nebraska.
