Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[BudPrager]

Searching can include googling clues from an image, but not (for instance) right clicking the picture and selecting "Search Google for image".

Thanks for the clarification, glad I'm not doing anything wrong

Good eyes sir. That is indeed the Sacre Coeur in the distance.

I lived around Paris, on and off, for almost a year. I spent quite a bit of time on that hill drinking wine and messing with the artists.

You're guilty, just come clean. Good for the soul.

And now, a video daily double! Get this one right and you'll get twice the $$

Vernal Falls, Yosemite National Park?

Vernal Falls, Yosemite National Park?

Yep. The mist trail to the top was amazing (and vigorous!). Have you been there?

Little jealous, Paris is great, just a shame about the expense and traffic.
Oh and the people...

I'll do no such thing!

Didn't cost me a penny (work ). People were gracious and accommodating. I have so many great stories.

No, but I've wanted to go for a long time & recognized the stone, falls & terrain from all the pics I've looked at over the years.

Here's one that I have been to many times...

No. Here's a clue:
This location is within the continental United States.

Black Hills?

Black Hills?

No. Here's a hint: It's NOT Sioux Falls, SD.

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Is it in Utah ?

Grand Falls, Az

I just looked that up and never would have guessed Idaho in a million years, but it looks like it to me.

BINGO! Shoshone Falls, Twin Falls, ID. Good Eye!
You're up.

You'd be amazed what kind of beautiful rivers are tucked in between the potato fields of Idaho.

It was easy. I have paddled the 20 mile stretch of the canyon before. It was one of the most amazing days. Class 4 drops in a deep canyon with waterfalls pouring out the walls of the canyon.

I also used to fly a route that would spend the day in Twin Falls. Another route landed in Twin Falls then onto Sun Valley. I have flown over the falls probably 100 times. Here is an aerial of the falls. Then my skyline to guess.

Salt Lake, Utah

Salt Lake, Utah

Yep

It's called the spiral jetty. Also next to it is the Golden Spike Museum where the two parts of the Transcontinental Railroad met.

 

[pvpeacock]

I've flown over it a few times over the years and instantly recognized it.

Here you go.

 

[HarborTownBrewing]

No. freaking. idea.

Somewhere on the Amazon?

 

[beernbourbon]

No. freaking. idea.

This
Um. Somewhere in Panama. [emoji12]

 

[arturo7]

That is one most bazaar rock formations ever. Looks kinda man made.

I'll go with Manchuria just because it's a cool word.

 

[pvpeacock]

It is man made.

 

[passedpawn]

I gave up and cheated. Pretty cool. Not likely a place I'll visit though, but who knows.

One thing I'll say about this dumb game, which I like: I get to see some places I didn't know about. In orlando they claim it's a small world, but in truth it's larger than I have time for in this lifetime.

 

[pvpeacock]

I've been there twice. It is absolutely beautiful and amazing. I'm glad you looked it up, because it is an interesting story.

 

[beernbourbon]

A lagoon in Abu Dhabi?

 

[HarborTownBrewing]

Somewhere South of Cancun

 

[Yeastieboy]
