Guess the spot

[Scott Chandler]

I was thinking more Wasatchy. Bells Canyon?

 

[Nick]

Totally wild guess but my first thought was that it looks like the canyon coming down from Alice Lake in the Sawtooth Range.

Nope.

Wasatchy, indeed.

Bells Canyon?

Nope.

No sir. Further south.

Well it might be up high in American Fork canyon by the Timponeke trailhead but I would have thought Traverse Ridge would be in th way of seeing the mine.

 

[Nick]

It is in American Fork canyon, but not up high by Timpanooke. Name the well travelled trail I'm standing on and it's yours.

 

[Mike K]

Is it the trail to Timp Cave??

Bingo!

Big hints helped and Artemus put me on the right track.

Here's a random one. Name the town (because I'm honestly not sure the name of the peak). I'll add hints if it's too obscure.

That looks like Silverton, with Kendall Mtn in the background.

Confluence of the Yampa and the Green in Echo Park. This was slated for damming up and flooding at one point. Fortunately that fate was narrowly avoided.

Correct!

 

[Artemus]

Name any skyline feature in view. HINT: It is all granite, my favorite.

 

[Scott Chandler]

Looks like Sierras near Mt Whitney

 

[Artemus]

Yes @Scott Chandler Mt Whitney is the high point. on the right and Keeler Needle just to left of it. This pic was from the approach to climb that great East Face of Whitney. You are up!

Oh, cool. I just guessed based off photos I have seen of the area. The rock there has a characteristic appearance somehow.

Ummmm....... This one.
