Where is it? (Poor mans version)

[Taylor]

73825

[Scott P]

I won't say, but the mountain it was taken from is 10,241 feet and the mountain on the left is 10,246 feet elevation.

[Scott P]

Dang, if no one else wants to guess, I guess I will, but I would have thought that it would be a gimme since it's right out side of Salt Lake City. In fact you can see both the peak the photo was taken from and the mountain the photo is of from the city.

How's this? The top of the Church Office Building (minus the radio tower) is pointing right at the mountain where the photo was taken (the Church Office Building is the farthermost left building):

http://www.bglco.com/images/salt-lake-city_large.jpg

Since the mountains in question are somewhat behind other peaks, you can't see them from every part of the valley, but you can from much of the north and south sides of the valley. (Or more specifically you can see both peaks from the northern parts of the valley, but only the peak where the photo was taken from in much of the south side of the valley).

[Sandstone Addiction]

What's the road in the picture...center right? Doesn't look big enough for I-80.

[Scott P]

It's the road through Big Cottonwood Canyon.

The photo of Salt Lake City I linked shows the Mill Creek side of the mountain.

[Taylor]

Good clues Scott. Someone name the basin in the foreground/center of the photo or the peak the pic was taken from.

[Sun Dance]

Gobblers Knob from Mount Raymond. Mill A Basin.

[Taylor]

Nice job Kid. You're up.

[Sun Dance]

I'll take either the name of the peak in the distance or the trail and city from which the image was taken. If you can get one, you'll probably be able to get the other with fairly minimal effort.

73874

[Sun Dance]

The image was taken facing east.

[Sun Dance]

This is in Washington State.

[Sun Dance]

The Bill and Melinda...

[Bootboy]

Gates...?

Is that Mt Stuart in the background?


LNT

[Sun Dance]

You're on the right track. Not Mt Stuart...that's on the east side of the Cascades.

[Sun Dance]

OK, this is the Puget Sound Energy trail in Redmond, just north of Redmond High School. This should get you close enough to figure out the peak.

[Sun Dance]

OK, I don't want to tie this up any longer. New picture below. This one is Mount Phelps, prominent from many points in the Seattle area. Here it is again from Magnuson Park in Seattle (barely south in latitude of the other picture):

73937

This one should be a little more straightforward:

73938

[Scott P]

OK, I don't want to tie this up any longer.

I think part of the problem is that it seems to be only a few people guessing. I know where all the photos you have posted are (I am from Washington; and can recognize the latest photo in Utah too), and most (not all) of the other ones posted by others as well, but assume that people would tire of the same people guessing and posting photos all the time.

I guess I'll just say that the hill pictured in the background of the latest photo is 6194 feet high and that the photo was taken at or near a campground off Highway 189 and at a popular reservoir.

Hopefully some more people can participate so it's not always the same people guessing.

[Sun Dance]

Good to hear I wasn't stumping ALL of you. ScottP have you been up Phelps? I've always wanted to do it but never had the chance. There are a few reports on it over on nwhikers.net and it looks grizzly but fun. Doable without gear in the right season.

[Scott P]

No, I haven't climbed the peaks in that area yet.

[Taylor]

I can't say that I've recognized most of the photos on this thread. That, however, looks a lot like Deer Creek, specifically what we call the Wallsburg arm. Used to be good fun jumping big boat wakes in there on my stand-up pwc. Now it's all wake less...

[Sun Dance]

Correct, Taylor. You're up.

Or save time and downclimb the right side LUC.

Send down a dope on a rope for a depth check and then everybody else jumps if deemed safe. That's the fastest way. ;)


LNT

[Taylor]

Correct, of course. The first time we did Imlay, we came into the crossroads above those potholes and did the rap as a two stage. When this pic was taken last summer, we walked right down to this spot from the big slickrock ramp, near the center of the photo. Boot's up.

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

[deagol]

Hint #1: it's in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument

Hint #2 it's on the west side of the Escalante river

Hint #3 it's upstream from Neon

Hint #4: This canyon is in the upper reaches of a larger canyon system that is a tributary of the Escalante River. The larger canyon has a shape that is more controlled by geologic structure, rather than just flowing water (no meanders, etc. formed in an area of jointing resulting in a curving shape). There are smaller side-canyons (of which this is one) that come into the canyon at nearly right angles. At the head of the canyon, there is a series of other joints that run almost north-south, but curve slightly to the northwest and these features also intersect the Escalante further upstream. Looking at an aerial photo should give this away easily

Hint #5: this canyon is listed on Slotmachine's canyon map

Hint #6: This canyon is also listed on the Climb Utah website and is rated 3BIII

Hint #7: this canyon has an alternate name that is based on a street intersection theme. The canyon and tributaries, as mentioned above, intersect at or near right angles.

Hint #8: this canyon has a "Zion-esque" look to it and contains dark passages and pools of water.

Hint #9: FRENCH DE wrote a trip report on it here on Bogley back in 2008

Hint #10" the "Kelsey" name for this canyon is from the "flat" above the canyon


Name the canyon.

It's possible to see this arch with a street legal vehicle (it's only a couple hundred yards from the road), but the vehicle should be equipped with a winch and lockers front and rear these days.

Not sure the name of it, but in Pritchett Canyon. Maybe Troll Bridge Arch?

I've always known this as Window Arch, but it may also be called Troll Bridge (I like that name...), but yes, this is located in Pritchett Canyon between the Rocker Knocker and The Rock Pile.
