Where is this? The game...

[roverrocks]

and all i can think of for your pic is it was taken somewhere in the swell with temple mountain in the background. :dunno:

It is farther east of The Swell and Henry Mountains.

Those have to be either the LaSal or Abajo mountains in the back ground.......that is about as good as I can do.

Without going off-topic alot here, can you see those mesas and the center formations along the I-15? I was heading home from California and noticed all that in the picture above from the Freeway.

You must be talking about glimpses of Zion National Park and views of the mesas to the east as you approach St. George.

Where was this taken from and what is the mountain range in the distance?

Looking at the countours of the terrain under the snow, looks like it was taken from the general vicinity of Hidden Canyon, w/ the LaSals in the background?

You are correct. Those are the LaSal Mtns in the background. Picture taken from the southern tunnel entrance of Tusher Tunnel which is very close to Hidden Canyon. You're up.

Ok, where is this? name the mountains and for bonus the canyon.

Yeah, that's probably what it was then, because my vision is not what it used to be. Lol

 

[roverrocks]

Deep Creek Range?? Ibapah and Haystack Peaks????

 

[iceaxe]

Yes, Deep Creeks.
Looks like your just a notch to the north of getting the higher peak in view right. Back at ya.

How about a Colorado mountain scene from 3 days ago on July 4. What is the name of the valley I am coming down and what high pass did I come over at the head of this valley?

 

[Greg]

California Pass, coming down into Animas Forks?

 

[roverrocks]

I knew you would get it right away Greg. I'm sitting in California Gulch heading towards Animas Forks after having come over California Pass. You're up.

I think most of the Utahans here wouldn't have gotten it, so the cards were stacked in my favor. Beautiful valley, that's for sure!

Ok.... let me see what I can dig up.

 

[Greg]

Ok... Where? Yes, in Utah.

 

[anderson750]

I don't know the name of the area, but it is on Mount Tipanogas

 

[Greg]

I don't know the name of the area, but it is on Mount Tipanogas

Negative!

Looks kind of like the Yellow Mountain ridgeline above Trout Lake south of Telluride but I know you said it is in Utah so I say the La Sal Mountains below Geyser Pass.

Correct on the La Sals and you've got the location spot on! Had to do a bit of hiking to get to this spot, but it offered a great view.

You're up again!

 

[roverrocks]

What is this Utah trail's name?

 

[Cody]

Is that the very beginning of Gold Bar?
