Guess the spot: Utah Edition

[Udink]

I've often thought that I've probably never done anything in my 4runner that a properly skilled and motivated person in a shitty ford taurus who dgaf couldn't do

Have you ever lifted a tire in a Taurus? It takes zero skill. This is actually me, about 16 years ago.




Okay, next up (since I'm sure I got the last one right):

 

[regehr]

well I don't have any actual clue here but it's got a Book Cliffy look so I'm going with a wag that this is along the Price River as it enters the cliifs

 

[Reef&Ruins]

Looks like there is a mountain behind those cliffs (between the 2nd and 3rd peaks).

yeah, though I still think it could be just a higher-up part of the Book Cliffs. I spent a few minutes looking around this area on GE but I failed to either find an exact match or convince myself that I was definitely wrong, so I'll stick with my wag

You're in the right general area, but it's not the Price River. There is year-round flowing water in the canyon I was standing in, though (I feel like any hint I could give would be a dead giveaway, so that should probably let someone nail it).

Nine Mile?

 

[Pukwudgie]

Desolation?

 

[Udink]

Nine Mile?

Getting colder.

Desolation?

This is closer than regehr's guess--a part of Desolation is closer to this spot than where the Price River enters the Book Cliffs.

I knew this would be a toughie without any hints but now I'm hoping it'll be obvious.

How about Range Creek Canyon?

That's it. This was taken less than a mile up Range Creek from where it joins the Green River in Gray Canyon (facing east directly toward the Green).

Holy cr@p, i can't believe I got it. I've never been to that part of Utah. It's amazing what a picture and some clues can do.

Anything good in that area? I see that cairn on top of that boulder.

I was standing next to a pit house when I took the photo, but didn't see anything else interesting in the area. I hiked down the canyon from the end of the road to get there.

 

[XID_AZ]

Any takers, or do I need to start putting the hints in?

 

[Rockskipper]

Looks kinda Cedar Mesa-ish

something in vicinity of Moki Dugway maybe?

Both are VERY warm.

 

[gnwatts]

It looks like Muley Point.

 

[XID_AZ]

It looks like Muley Point.

Bingo. That was probably too recognizable.

You're up.
