Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[InspectorJon]

East side of the Sierra Nevada, looking east?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

I don't think I've posted this before. It's one of my two favorite campgrounds.

What’s your other favourite? Mars.

 

[govner1]

Nope, wrong state.

Utah?

 

[pvtpublic]

New mexico?

 

[duncan.brown]

@govner1 has the state.

 

[duncan.brown]

East side of the Sierra Nevada, looking east?

That's close to my other favorite campground, but no.

 

[govner1]

Vermillion Cliffs

 

[duncan.brown]

Vermillion Cliffs is too far south. This is BLM land, though, not a national park.

 

[cmac62]

Is it in the Moab area?

 

[govner1]

McCoy Flats

 

[duncan.brown]

Not McCoy Flats, we're in the Moab area.

Lone Mesa?

 

[duncan.brown]

Lone Mesa

Close, but not quite. I took this picture, but Google maps has almost exactly the same shot (although not street view...)

 

[InspectorJon]

The wife and I toured southern Utah a couple years ago. Lots of exceptional things to see all over the area. We both felt that Arches National Park was the one we would most want to return to.

 

[govner1]

Dinosaur Tracks

 

[duncan.brown]

Nope. We're between US-191 and the Colorado River.

 

[InspectorJon]

Hatch Point campground

 

[duncan.brown]

Ding ding! @InspectorJon has it. I found it randomly on my first cross-country road trip in 2000. Awesome sunsets looking west over Canyonlands.

 

[InspectorJon]

Getting back to Bridges. Name the city.

 

[pvtpublic]

That looks like the Zakim bridge in Boston

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Asia?

 

[InspectorJon]

Asia?

Yes, Asia

 

[govner1]

Well, that narrows it down!

 

[InspectorJon]

Well, that narrows it down!

A city in Asia . . . Eliminates half the world

 

[govner1]

Danjiang Bridge-Taiwan

 

[InspectorJon]

West of Taiwan and much farther south.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Well, that narrows it down!

Yes it does

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Vietnam?

 

[govner1]

Rama VIII Bridge

 

[InspectorJon]

South and a little east of Vietnam.

Not Rama VII bridge, It looks a lot like that though, doesn't it? The name of the city will do.
