Guess where this is...

[Byron]

I saw somewhere in this forum a couple weeks ago a "guess this place" thread. I can't find it now, so I'll make a new one. Perhaps it's a sticky somewhere? I'm sure some kind person will direct me to the right place...Anyway, give this a shot. Two clues: It's a backpack destination, no nearby roads or easy hike in. Secondly, the mountain in the distance is SOUTH of where I took this picture. If you guess this correct, you and I have something special in common...

navajo mtn to the south. so i would guess escalante. maybe nesr cliff?

Holy crap! That was quick! Indeed you are correct. For those who don't know where this is, it's a high point at the southern end of the Waterpocket Fold. At the very head of Steven's Canyon. The route(s) to get there are described in a Steve Allen book. It's a magnificent place. Great job! I think I'll have to go a bit more technical next time...

Here's a shot of the tank that is always there, even during the drought years. I've been there many times. It's two days to get there for a strong hiker. There's also another tank as big as a swimming pool just 5 min. southeast of this one, along the rim. If you go up there, don't worry, there's water.

Here is the link for the other thread you were asking about.

Thanks for steering me to the right place. It appears I have to guess one before I can put one up myself!

glad we have something in common. :2thumbs:

Here's something else we have in common...I've run into a few of these. Don't worry, they're all still where I discovered them in secret locations. This one was in a spot I would have never expected.
