Where is this located?
Yes. I tok this picture last week on a climbing roadtrip.Quote:

Would those be the Tables of the Sun and Mossback Butte in the distance?Quote:

These Tops, and the prominent landmarks in the distance in my pic, are about 70 miles NNW from the Tables of the Sun and are Entrada sandstone.
The name of the general area of this well would be fine.
I'll be away from the computer for the weekend, so be patient if I don't respond quickly.
Is it around Moonshine Wash area?
I don't know if this is helpful in identifying the formations, but they are Summerville Formation with a little Entrada Sandstone cropping out around the edges. :naughty:Quote:

But no, not close to Moonshine. But you would see these "Tops" if you were looking Southwest from Moonshine.
This tank is south of the DDR.
The Flat Tops were my first thought, but as Udink points out, the clue throws us off a little since only have a little Entrada around the bases. Anyway, it is the Flat Tops and Wildhorse Butte would be the one to the left and out in the distance. I still don't know what stock tank that is though.
Yea, my mistake...sorry for the confusion. :facepalm1:
So, since this tank is too new to be recognized, I'm going to post a new pic that is fair to all.
BTW, the tank is along the road to Hell Hole Swale.
Here is a different pic...should be easily recognized by some:

@Scott P , you're correct.Quote:

No. What's the significance of 2011 though?Quote:

How about Wolverine Petrified Wood Natural Area?
Yes; more specifically the south fork of Wolverine Canyon.
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.
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):

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).
What's the road in the picture...center right? Doesn't look big enough for I-80.
It's the road through Big Cottonwood Canyon.
The photo of Salt Lake City I linked shows the Mill Creek side of the mountain.
Good clues Scott. Someone name the basin in the foreground/center of the photo or the peak the pic was taken from.
Gobblers Knob from Mount Raymond. Mill A Basin.
Nice job Kid. You're up.
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.

The image was taken facing east.
This is in Washington State.
The Bill and Melinda...
Gates...?
Is that Mt Stuart in the background?
LNT
You're on the right track. Not Mt Stuart...that's on the east side of the Cascades.
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.
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):

This one should be a little more straightforward:

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.Quote:
OK, I don't want to tie this up any longer.
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.
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.
No, I haven't climbed the peaks in that area yet.
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...
