Thread: Guess that National Park or Monument

    Guess that National Park or Monument

    I will be posting some photos from som national parks or monuments. Guess which one. Bonus points for anyone whom can name specific places. PS, be honest. If you are one of the people I've already shown any of the photos too, please let someone else answer.

    Here is the first national park or monument to identify.

    Clue: This area has many 2000+ foot cliffs, some of which are viewed in the below photos. There are many canyons 2000 feet deep here. This place has many more pine trees than many other national parks or monuments in Utah, but also lot's of desert. Some of the canyons have some very deep keeper potholes.

    Where is it?




    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

    Well, I'm tempted to guess Zion, but it sounds too easy. Trick question?
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    About as tricky as a previous "guess where these pictures were taken" that Scott posted. Sorry, I cheated to find out where they were taken, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

    No trick question. The clues are all correct and all the photos were taken in a national park or monument in Utah.

    So far we have one answer for Zion. Anyone agree or disagree?

    So far we have two answers for Zion. Anyone else agree or disagree?

    I have to go, but I'll verify this afternoon when I get back.

    I dont think it looks quite like Zion, but I cant think of where else it would be.
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference. ~ Frost

    And the correct answer is Dinosaur National Monument. I don't blame anyone for guessing Zion. I took these June 3rd in Dinosaur NM, and was thinking "man this place looks just like Zion".
