The name of the photo will only help you figure out that it's out on the coast.


Heceta Head Lighthouse is above the Lion Caves - 12 miles north of Florence off Highway 101.

OK, a WAG here... I rode up along someplace that looked like this last year.... to a client meeting at the Mayo Clinic.

Is this the Mississippi River at the Great River Bluffs State Park near Winona, MN? If not, it sure looks like it!

I just found this thread, and was going to say the same thing. Have spent many nights at the Fitzgerald House bed and breakfast at the base of the bridge on the Iowa side. The pic was taken from Moumt Hosmer Park. How did you recognize it SFDOC?

Yeah, Umm, Easy? Lets see you are somewhere West of the Continental Divide and East of the Sierra Nevada's. Somewhere between there and south of say Reno to Cabo San Lucas? How close am I so far?

You are riding Southwest on a primarily North to South road through a desert that looks a like Nevada or California, could be in Death Valley, could be outside Las Vegas, it's late in the day and the temperatures are cool. And there is at least one other person with you.

EDIT: Ian how close to Pahrump, NV are you? Because that is what the ground surface looks like. All the way from there to the North end of Death Valley.

CORRECT! Both views taken from Mt. Hosmer Park in Lansing, IA along the Great River Road.

Cold as a stone!

East of the Continental Divide, central time zone, middle of nowhere, but totally somewhere. ;)
