Topic Wiki

Posting Rules:
-Post your own pictures that you took yourself.
-Only the correct guesser gets to post a picture, pictures posted by non-winners will be deleted.
-If 2 hours have passed since the winner was crowned and no image was posted anyone may post a picture.
-The correct guess must include the city name, or in the case of a small island the island name is acceptable.
-We're going on the honor system here, but you can't use a reverse image search to find out where a picture is.
Avoid the temptation and let's try to make this a fair and fun game :D
-If nobody figures out where the location is after an hour or so the original poster of the picture should start giving clues or can post another picture from the same city until its correctly guessed.
-All Players may not guess again until either 5 mins has passed or until another player guesses.

Is it in Australia ?

Nope.

Reminds me of the beginning of the Oak Creek West Fork trail, Sedona AZ

Definitely nope.

My guess would be somewhere on Maui.


Now you're gettin' somewhere!

The conversation makes much more sense now :D.

My guess would be somewhere between Hana and OGG airport. Being as I've never been to (well, at least not out of the airport on) Maui, this is gonna require some google maps work...

So looking at the map I see that's pretty much the whole island :)

What I meant was
...past Hana to the south side of Haleakala and on to Kula. This is more preferable by far, as you see the wild, hardly traveled side of Maui.

This thread's been inactive for a while...

Where's this?

Hint: it's not where you would think it is ;).


Now I'm confused. I thought the hint was there to exclude Maui...

It was meant to exclude the Southwest, where I assumed people would guess. This picture is kinda opposite of what people think of when they hear "Hawaii".

Manawainui Gulch :P

I was actually thinking that was it, but it looks so much greener on Google maps so I wasn't sure...

That was my first thought as well, but I figured SF was thinking

Also, I figured he was either working on the Hawaii or Iceland TR when he came across it, and I'm pretty sure I would recognize it if it was from Iceland. (at least I sure hope so :) )

Indeed ;D.

You gotta give a hint though :P. That building is too obscure (read: I have no idea where the heck it is).

I guess this place has no hope of revival.

Hint: It sold for $400,000 in 1999.
