Where is this? -Rocky Mountain Photo Game-

[Hypoid]

Eagle it is! The terrain changes noticeably, West of Edwards. Those red hills sure seem to stick in my mind.

[Jim]

A few FR folks were with me on a trip and can pick this out. Perhaps they'll sit back and see if it's an easy find for others, if not, pipe in!

(heck - perhaps it's a google thing)

[Tom]

One of the Central City cemetaries

[Bunyon & Babe]

Leo , aka "Easy" Pickens , buried beside Esther J at Pickens Point Cemetery , Larimer County Colorado. Red Feather Lakes < Cache La Poudre area . The little cemetery (only 3 graves ) is on the side of the road overlooking 7 Mile Creek on the switchbacks along County Road 69c.

[Jim]

Jim, that's wonderful. I didn't know all of that detail and only know that it a scenic, and easy to access, spot along a road to enjoy lunch.

You're up!

Some photos from "Pickens Point"...

[Bunyon & Babe]

Great pictures . Looks like it was a perfect day for a ride ! Here are a few more "headstone shots"
Where do you think these are ?

[Funrover]

Looks like the Southpark/Jefferson area

[Bunyon & Babe]

that's close ( half right anyway) . But South Park is a BIG park !

[Rick]

Fairplay cemetary

[Bunyon & Babe]

Close enough ! Actually these are about 500yds north of the Fairplay Cemetery gate , up and over the low ridge to the East of the road going in to the cemetery .
Rick , YUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEE EEEEEE UP

[flashboiler]

Here's one:

[Tom]

Is that the chimney off the lower portion of the Argentine Pass trail.
The one that runs parallel to Leavenworth road, 248.1A

[Jim]

I seem to recall a chimney on Switzerland Trail - but I don't know if it was that tall.

[flashboiler]

Jim got it. Mt Alto Picnic ground on the Switzerland Trail.

[Jackie]

Dang - beat me to it, Jim!

[Jim]

And such an odd guess too. I _almost_ put in that there seemed like a picnic / camp spot by it.

I've only been on a section of Switzerland once - back several years - but it seemed odd, that chimney, that it sticks in my mind. There was a house / building built next to it at some time, yes???

On to the next...

http://www.jimwilliamson.net/trains/1995-09-01-cumbres-&-toltec-1/36.jpg

[Tom]

According to what I've read, it was a train depot Jim.

[Tom]

Near Durango. (Rockwood). The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad Train

[Jim]

No on both counts.

Not Durango & Silverton. I believe not/never a depot (edit: as there are no roads, trails, buildings, people for miles around - aside from the steam trains meeting from each direction, with their passengers, it's wonderful Colorado scenery and solitude).

[SCRubicon]

Cripple Creek?

[Jim]

No.

[Tom]

"Adjacent to the historic Switzerland Trail railroad grade, Mount Alto Picnic Area was once a destination stop along the rails. At one time a fountain and Chautauqua hall graced this site; only the chimney and foundation of the fountain remain."

http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/arp/recarea/?recid=28304 (http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/arp/recarea/?recid=28304)

[Jim]

According to what I've read, it was a train depot Jim.

I think we're talking two different items. I've moved on to the photo I posted, not the Switzerland Trail photo.

[SCRubicon]

My only other guess would be the Cumbres and Toltec?

[Jim]

Bingo, you got it!

There aren't too many steam train lines in CO (Durango & Silverton, Cumbres & Toltec, Georgetown - can't think of any others).

Here's their Osier "lunch stop" - Osier Mountain
Google Map (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.012314,-106.3356355,18z)
(hmmm - it seems there is a forest road out to the spot)

[SCRubicon]

​We found this on a trail run 5-ish years ago. I can't recall who spotted it off in the trees. (easy to miss) IIRC the run was with Pathrat, Jimmy, Brody and perhaps Chris. I have no Idea if it is still there. Name the trail...

[Bunyon & Babe]

Metberry Gulch ?

[SCRubicon]

Nope, not Metberry.

[Tom]

Lefthand

[SCRubicon]

Nope, not Lefthand. But, it is a good winter trail.

[Funrover]

Barbor Forks?

[SCRubicon]

Nope, Barbour Forks is closed in the winter. This is a tough one, so here is a clue. There is a good BBQ place near the turn off to get to this trail.

[flashboiler]

Slaughterhouse Gultch?

[The StRanger]

Im thinkin Bunce ??

[SCRubicon]

Andy got it, Slaughterhouse Gulch is the trail. The Jeep carcass is to the left of the trail near the bottom of the long down hill stretch.

[The StRanger]

Wow. Never seen It up there !!

[flashboiler]

Here's one. Ran this Saturday.

Do the pictures have to be of/on a 4x4 trail, or can they be ANYWHERE in Colorado?

[Rick]

Post a photo from somewhere in Colorado and the other guys guess where it is. The person that gets it right gets to post the next photo, and so on. It's kind of a cool way to learn about new places, show off your travels and share your photos. Photos with rigs get extra credit!..........

A few of us have posted utah, wy, and mt pics too. They have rocky mtns.

You are up!

[Tom]

Name of the feature.

[Max]

I don't know the name of the feature, but it's on the Yampa River in Dinosaur National Monument in Utah.

[Tom]

I don't know the name of the feature, but it's on the Yampa River in Dinosaur National Monument in Utah.
Name the feature. Its been identified by a specific name since discovered. Oh and it actually is in Colo. At least according to google maps. And Usgs topos

You are thinking.the right place though, just a bit off on the coordinates.

[xaza]

dunno but it looks like a shark fin

[Tom]

dunno but it looks like a shark finlooks like something else according to whoever named it.

[Tom]

At confluence of green and yampa.

[ILuvtheMountains]

Nope, your to far south.

[Hypoid]

Yankee Hill.

[Squshiee1]

No, hmm, I thought this would be easy.

[ILuvtheMountains]

Kinda looks like Kelly flats to me.

[Squshiee1]

Hint, its special to fr4x4.

[xaza]

Barbour forks

[Tom]

Devils canyon

[ILuvtheMountains]

China wall?

[flashboiler]

Bill Moore?

[Brad]

Toms right. Devils canyon.

[Tom]

A bit closer to home. In boulder county

[Tom]

Okay. Clue time. Its a structure in one of Boulder County's open spaces. The structure is historic.

[Tom]

Still no guesses? Time for another clue.

In 1905, this spot became a tourist destination on the newly completed Eldora Line of the Switzerland Trail of America.

[Tom]

Time for another hint.
The color of Azurite, often found in silver ore, gave it its name

[Jim]

Either Caribou Ranch or DeLonde Homestead.

[xaza]

Caribou Ranch?

[Hypoid]

Blue Bird Mine.

Oooooooh, preeeeeeeeety...

http://www.dakotamatrix.com/images/products/azurite32600a.jpg

[Jackie]

I would like to have that rock!

[Tom]

Yep. The Blue Bird mine at Caribou Ranch open space. You are up Mike.

Sorry those who replied Caribou Ranch. I wasn't asking for the name of the open space .

http://bouldercountyopenspace.org/hard-rock-mine-tour/bluebird.html

[Hypoid]

Like Tom's last entry, this location is West of Boulder, and historic. However, it is not a rail bed.

Hopefully, I included enough geography to make the location recognizable. :)

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee120/Hypoid/FRONT%20RANGE/Frontrange001.jpg

[Tom]

The old wagon road up by Yankee Doodle lake?

[flashboiler]

Mammoth gultch to kingston peak?

It is indeed, the Boulder Wagon Road. The part you can drive on anyway.

[Tom]

Many, many FR4x4 members have driven by this lake. Probably not in winter though.

Great shot, Tom. You're the only other person I know that has been there.

This should be pretty easy, especially if you mountain bike. These are along the trail to the feature, which runs off a 4x4 trail.

EDIT: Ah, I remember hitting preview, but I guess I didn't hit submit. :rolleyes:

It's a National Monument. Figure out the name...

[Tom]

Dinosaur National Monument. On the road down to Steamboat Rock.

If thats correct post another as I don't have any pics to post at the moment.

I'd put the location of the photos in this area (Google Map):

Cell phone tower - not as originally designed and used, but for now, yes there are cell signals out there (Verizon rocks on it - I've heard others are dead).

Rampart - I believe there's one down there (There's your hint).

Added hint - I was not illegally scaling the tower.

It is one of the lakes hiking up to Emerald Lake... I think it is Dream Lake. Could be Nymph lake... I get em so confuzzled. Thought this was a "where have I seen it wheeling thread" and it threw me through a loop.

I didn't know where Highway 91 was until your answer so I knew that wasn't it. Looking at a map, it's just a little West.
