Guess the Spot: Eastern US Edition

[Reef&Ruins]

@kwc or anyone else I don’t have anything to post so first poster to put up a picture keeps the game going.
I enjoy playing even if I don’t have pictures to post. I hope that’s ok. I guess it means I need to plan trips back east post Covid.

I guess it means I need to plan trips back east post Covid.

I would recommend staying with southern Utah trips

I'm heading east this weekend - post vaccine! Maybe I'll have something fun to offer...

To keep the thread going I’ll bend the rules just a bit and post a picture of a place I’d like to visit back east. It’s on the Mississippi River but the “wrong bank” as it is on the west side.

 

[Reef&Ruins]

It’s an Indian ruins site and it’s in a state that starts with a vowel that borders the Mississippi River.

Looks like Minnesota, couldn't say where.

 

[Reef&Ruins]

The site is close to Minnesota but it is not in that state. Take a look at the clues I gave.

 

[marmot_boi]

Effigy Mounds NM?

 

[Reef&Ruins]

Mt Rogers

Close enough.
Mount Rogers is just out of sight, this is technically the Wilburn Ridge high point.

Hint: it's in the south

 

[Reef&Ruins]

Smoky Mountains somewhere?

 

[zionsky]

Farther south.

 

[Reef&Ruins]

In Georgia? Springer Mountain?
