I know I'm right on that one so here is the next picture.

Probably easy, but it is a nice picture. Name the mountain and the where I was standing.

i was always curious about the skiability(yes i enjoy making up my own words) of those slides... i think they are skiable just sick, with high avi danger

I look at them often on the way to/from SR in the winter. I think they are skiable, but I would need a good beacon and a good buddy that knows alot about avalanches before I tried it.

Hey - I won earlier and I never posted! :blink:

Okay, here's my where-is-it shot:

No clue. Guessing Galehead or one of the Twins (Never been on the twins or galehead) as i think that is the Franc ridge in the background.

Awesome picture.

Well, I guess that was a bit too easy. Let me try something else...

General location is very simple, but can you guess exactly?

Click to expand...

Definitely Acadia. Atop The Bubbles facing west toward Jordan Pond and Cadillac

As you decided to advance on this, I'm gonna give it away... not actually on the bubbles, actually from pemetic mountain, looking east towards south bubble, sargeant mountain...

Sorry. you should have said " No,you are wrong!" I would have kept guessing with the help of my Acadia map. I need to get back up there and do more hiking.

Haha, still getting to know the ropes around here... I could do another Acadia one... let's see...

Should be pretty easy...

Nope! Any other takers? I didn't go out of the area; it is in New England...

"Sweet!" says the former structural engineer and bridge designer.

But I have no idea where it is...

Bear Mountain?

Yep! Shot from the side of (not the summit) of Bear Mountain. That's the Bear Mountain Bridge, Anthony's nose (the peak directly above the bridge on the Westchester Side), and The Hudson River.

The reason I love this photo is we get to compare the color of the Hudson to the color of Hessian Lake. Ooooh.. brown rivers!

ga2ski · Jun 16, 2005

Brown rivers and green ponds . . . I thought New Jersey, but southern New York is the same thing.

here is one...

Bwahaha! Stumped you all!

I'm standing on Mt. Moriah. The nearer peaks are the Carter Range. In the distance from center to right are Washington and the Northern Presidentials.

See the 4347x1440 original picture.

i didnt even notice until you said anything... nice job

MichaelJ · Jun 17, 2005

Thanks! The camera has a specific panorama mode, which locks the white balance and exposure across all the shots. That makes a huge difference in reducing the seams.
