Guess the spot: Maps Edition

Got it, @Langdon Greene! Those Bitterroot canyons are unmistakeably straight. And hooked on the end.

I was planning a trip there this July, but I think I'm going to have to shelve it for a later year due to time constraints.

 

[Langdon Greene]

Yeah, there are a lot of nice backpacking opportunities all along that southern border of MT/ID. I hope you get there soon (and that I do too!)

Meanwhile, here's some topography with an interesting feature.... something unusual going on....

That would be Lost Creek in the Lost Creek Wilderness! One of my favorite hiking areas.

 

[Langdon Greene]

Yep, that's it - Lost Creek. You're up, @mike_offerman !

Edit - apparently the pass to the north, skirting Douglas Peak, is doable. I got to Lake 10787 and chickened out. It's apparently not as bad as it looks...

Trail between _UPPER GOLDEN_ Lake and _CAMP_ Lake.

Fast work, Larry. You're up.

From the trail before the little descent to lk 10787. Douglas peak and the pass just to the left (edit: I think):

We'll give this a whirl; i have no idea whether it'll be easy or impossible. Should be a decent number of clues in there...

 

[LarryBoy]

Anybody? Name the mountains or the metro area... your choice.

Hint - not in Utah

 

[Jackson]

Kinda reminds me of Ennis, MT. But on second thought, it seems a little large and the river runs on the other side, I believe.

Looks a little overdeveloped to be Driggs, ID but WTH, Driggs, ID.

Much more developed than Driggs.

 

[Outdoor_Fool]

Much more developed, sort of like Albuquerque developed.
