Guess the spot: Utah Edition

[Mike K]

Ha, I found another picture with a different vantage point (different trip). If it's still too vague I'll post a picture that should be a dead give away. We're looking for the body of water or state park...

 

[regehr]

Millsite maybe?

Escalante Petrified Forest State Park / Wide Hollow reservoir?

Where is and was it?

 

[regehr]

I think I've stayed in this motel

 

[Henk]

hope that nasty ghost didn't bother you!

I think I've stayed in this motel

It's still better than the Appletree Inn in Richfield...

 

[UtahBrian]

Hidden Splendor?

 

[Henk]

Not "Motel 6" or any of the other remaining facilities around Hidden Splendor

Above picture is from Spring 2004 (my first "digital year")
Below what it looked like years later in 2010, in the meantime it probably has become completely flat by now!

Hint: There is another, wellknown, place of interest not far away!

 

[regehr]

ok, I suspect I know this one, but I have a busy couple days coming up and might not have time to pick something new

 

[Henk]

@regehr still curious about what you think it is!

 

[regehr]

oops, I lost track of this! is this at Sego?

 

[Henk]

Correct, it is/was the Boarding House at the Sego Canyon Ghost town not far from the wellknown Pictographs!

here's a slightly different view of some familiar Wasatch peaks. what is the name of the trail from which I took this photo?

 

[Jackson]

That's definitely Dromedary, O'Sullivan, and Twin Peaks. So how about Mill B North?

 

[regehr]

got it.

This is an under-loved trail that I figure needs a bit more attention -- the upper third or so (counting Porter Pass as the end of the trail) is getting a bit overgrown! I was just there yesterday and didn't see anyone else there, even on the considerably-more-popular bottom mile to the overlook
