Where is it? (Poor mans version)

I lurk... I will probably never get to answer. :haha:

I lurk to and even got lucky once rofl!!!

[oldno7]

I lurk to and even got lucky once rofl!!!

What has that got to do with lurking............:haha::haha:

[darkmatter]

Woot!

I've actually never been to Glacier. I have read about it, though, and the remarkable road going through it. The width of the roadway, and the stonework, made me suppose that it might be Going to the Sun Road. The "north" clue helped, too. A little googling, and voila!

OK, this is a stereo pair. If you can cross your eyes and make the images merge, the 3D will pop out.

[oldno7]

Fiery Furnace

[darkmatter]

Yes, very good. Question is, is that specific enough? Opinions, folks?

[denaliguide]

people have won with less. :lol8:

[oldno7]

I could not pinpoint an exact location within. depending on camera angles, you could make literally dozens of places look similar.

It's Krill Canyon. Your turn, #7.

Was anyone able to get the 3D effect to work?

No, keep guessing

[oldno7]

Red Cliffs National Conservation Area

This particular area has a very specific name, I'm looking for that name.

[darkmatter]

I've done the krill route many times, I still can't pin down your exact location, but I'm old.
Is this the canyon below the kissing turtles?

Here's the spot just up canyon, where we rapped in, if that helps.

[darkmatter]

It worked for me - really cool. How does it work?

It works by presenting your left eye with the scene the left eye originally saw, and your right eye with the scene the right eye originally saw. The two images are a little bit different--created by holding the camera off to the left a bit and snapping the picture, then moving it to the right, centering on the same spot as the first, and taking another picture. Centering exactly isn't really critical, nor is how far apart the two camera positions are. It is important that the two images aren't tilted with respect to each other, though (but even that can be corrected with software).

Since there are a few seconds of time separation between the shots, if anything is moving in the scene, including clouds, ripples of water, or windblown grass, the result will look odd. There are 3D cameras that take both images at the same time, or rigs that mount two cameras for doing so...in that case, scenes with movement come out OK.

[oldno7]

Here's the spot just up canyon, where we rapped in, if that helps.

Ahhh-just below the blimp hangar

[trackrunner]

This particular area has a very specific name, I'm looking for that name.

but you got it right with the Fiery Furnace and my guess isn't specific enough? isn't there a couple threads on bogely about hyp . . . . j/k :haha:

if you need more specific, somewhere along the virgin river portion?

even more specific Babylon?

It is the area of slickrock just northeast of the dam (access via a gravel road from Hwy 89), where you can find the Hidden Gardens trail.

It's actually taken from right next to Liberty Cap. I'll provide the answer now so someone else can go since I will be camping with the scouts after work and can't answer. Maybe Richie can go since he was the one guessing Colorado NM.

Jamal and Richie, thank you for what you said about the picture.

Jamal, you're very close but it is not Deer Creek.

Could you or somebody say the name of this canyon (ending in Upper Paria) or the name given by Kelsey for just the slot part ?

To help a little, this hoodoo (which is named from the signature that is writen on it) is just a couple hundred yards from the slot canyon :

42041

If nobody can tell the name of the canyon or the slot until Sunday's evening, I'll say that Jamal won.

[Scott P]

It looks like Johnson Hole Canyon, but I thought that was more than a few hundred yards from that hoodoo?

[Philippe]

It looks like Johnson Hole Canyon, but I thought that was more than a few hundred yards from that hoodoo?

You nailed it ! Kelsey names this part of the canyon "Red slot".

After verification on Google Earth, Sam Pollock Hoodoo is about 0.6 mile from the lower entrance of Red Slot (that's more than "a couple of hundred yards" that I remembered).

Looks a little like Cohab Canyon in Capitol Reef.

I haven't been to Cohab Canyon, but I am not surprised there would be some similarity.

[darkmatter]

Lost Spring Canyon?

Fraid not.

[oldno7]

Is it in ANP?

[Philippe]

Name of the trail will do.

Upper Muley Twist trail.

Upper Muley Twist trail.

We have a winner!

My son and I did the whole 9 mile loop hike one week ago today, that cold, windy day. Awesome hike, highly recommended. We didn't enter the slot because we weren't prepared for the significant amount of water in it. I had only driven through Cap Reef on Hwy 24 in the past, and failed to appreciate its qualities. Will definitely be going back there.

Where is this ?

Hmm, brings to mind Devil's Garden, the one off Hole-in-the-Rock.

I am afraid that it is not close to this one.

Hmm Philippe,

[oldno7]

needles area?

Nope.

Escalante or ANP?

You can find the answer to your question in my answer to Darkmatter :wink:

Reminds me of the eye of the whale area

[Philippe]

Reminds me of the eye of the whale area

Yes :nod:, but what is the name of this area ?

[zzyzx]

Herdina Park?

[Philippe]

Herdina Park?

You're right :nod:, this picture was taken in Herdina Park.

You have found the right name of this place but the answer of Wes242 ("Eye of the Whale area") was also a good answer, so I let you decide who will post the next picture.

[wes242]

I will give it a shot. What mountain is this hike on?
42984

[wes242]

Your up!

[darkmatter]

Since trackrunner seems to be AWOL, how's this for an interlude. Two winners for this one, most accurate, and most entertaining. :naughty:

[Udink]

Somewhere in Kodachrome?

[zzyzx]

Between Hole-In-The-Rock-Rd and Old Sheffield Rd?

[darkmatter]

Somewhere in Kodachrome?

no

Between Hole-In-The-Rock-Rd and Old Sheffield Rd?

no

[DWayne27]

That right there is on the drive to the High Spur area. Cant remember exactly, but I am pretty sure it was well past the ranger station, and closer to the trailheads for High Spur and Big Springs.

[DWayne27]

As far as entertaining... I could post some of the pictures I took at this particular formation, but it might force this thread to move to the rubbish bin

Yeah, in the vicinity of the intersection of Deadman's Trail and the road from Hans Flat, a mile or two southeast of here:

I first read this as "of this particular formation", and wondered how such could possibly be objectionable. Then I noticed it is "at this particular formation". Uh-huh. I must say my curiousity is piqued, in a morbid sort of way. :lol8:

So far as I can determine, the formation has not been named. Seems this situation should be remedied. I propose "The Member".

[trackrunner]

busy working and out on trips

let's see if someone can correctly name the canyon drainage just below the plateau in the background before my next trip this weekend

[Scott P]

[trackrunner]

[denaliguide]

[oldno7]

How bout looking over Moccasin with Kiabab Plateau in background.

[oldno7]

Oh, and canyon drainage would be Kanab Cr.
