Not Big Bend, but at the top of a great hike there is a big bend in the river when you look over the edge!

We didn't read up too much about this hike before doing it. Signs and literature said strenuous, steep, for experienced hikers etc, we said a strenuous 5 mile round trip hike, cool!. I read after that this hike is considered one of the most dangerous in the US National Parks. A hiker fell to his death just this past Monday there, RIP. The trail was busy at the top, especially the last 500 feet, bottle necked on the narrow ridge, you actually need to hold onto a fixed chain when someone passes, hug the wall as they hug you to get around! I marked people on the ridge trail in a pic for ya!

Wow, thanks for the pics!! Wouldn't be for me, but glad you enjoyed it!!!

Great shots! Your black & white photo makes me think of Ansel Adams, and he loved Yosemite, so I'll make that my guess.

Dan

Maybe Bryce Canyon?

Bryce is very close....google away

Perhaps Zion?

Zion!

Here's one I dug up.

I swear that looks familiar. Is it outside SJU??

Carol, not close to SJU.

OK. Guess I was wrong. First time today!

Here's another view.

Hmm... Big city and Spanish with a subway - Madrid, Spain?

Zanshin, not Madrid and not Europe.

Manila?

I’m going to say, some where in South America

Fran, not Manila. SXMFOX, although debatable, I'm going with Wiki here and say yes for this city.

Fred--Ok, I'm almost certain I know the answer now, but will wait because I don't have a picture to post.

Carol, call in your picture person - Kim - and name this because I think you know the answer based on your past posts.

Panama City? That's probably wrong, which will make me feel really stupid...

Carol, you are correct! You are up.

OK, anyone have a picture to post, please go ahead!!

Again, anyone who has a picture, please post it!

Here's one Carol..........

thanks, Beerman!!

Thought I recognized it, but then I cheated and confirmed my guess by looking at the aerial view on Google maps. So I'll hold back.

Dan

Grand Case, St. Martin?

Not on St Martin.........

Zanshin--huh. Doesn't look familiar to me, but could be, I guess.

other direction from the pool, I think if I post a pic from any other spot around this area it would be quickly guessed......

Here is a pic of the resort dock......

I'll jump in if I must. Certainly would have recognized this last photo, even without my prior cheating.

Dan

Have at it! I like more than one guess a day!!!

Biras Creek.

We never stayed there, but passed through many times walking from the Bitter End to the Fat Virgin. Sure would be nice to do that again some time.

Dan

I'm not sure what the plans are for that resort? We also never stayed there, but they were always very nice to us when we stopped at the office. They let us enjoy the property many times. I'm missing the islands.

Someone else's photo of a stack of cellos made me think of this one. I'm looking for the city and the function of the building.

The roof looks like France, but the clocks say Greenwich?

Good guess based on the clocks, but not Greenwich.

By the way, I liked the T-shirts I once saw for sale at the Greenwich observatory -- "Center of Space and Time".

Dan

This museum is in the same city. The building housing the museum originally served the same purpose as the building with the clocks.
