How about I just post my own photo from almost the exact same location? :D Silver Island Mountains, just west of Lamus Peak. I'm really surprised we've both been in that same canyon. Did you walk through the 500' mine shaft going through the ridge? I'll BRB with a new photo to guess.

This might be a bit obscure, although it's very close to a wrong guess to one of my recent posts in this thread. I'll accept anything relatively close to the area and will be dropping hints along the way.

I feel like that's a reference to my Sheets Draw guess. Haha. I can't place it exactly off of personal experience, but I'm gonna guess Pleasant Creek Flats.

Nailed it! Taken from inside an alcove along Pleasant Creek Flats, with Jorgenson Flats in the distance across Pleasant Creek.

Absolutely love that whole area. It's my favorite spot for spring backpacking. And the fact it's now 11ish hours away from me is my least favorite part about living in Montana. Haha.

Next up.

we poked into the mineshafts just a bit-- I'm scared of going too far into these, though one that goes all the way through should probably have good ventilation!

How about a canyon name? Cedar Mesa is pretty large. This is near the top of this canyon, and it feeds into Grand Gulch.

Oh yeah, I wasn't saying I won.... just getting it started.

Now I will try Shieks for $100
 
Reminds me of the descent from the divide separating Big Spring and Squaw canyons at Needles.

Correct. Except I am ascending from Big Spring up over, but whatever! You are up @SteveR! Sorry for the late reply. Been a busy day.
