Forum Photo Contest!

Postby Glacier » Nov 6th, 2011, 3:53 pm

The first person who can guess all three photos wins. The winner is awarded the privileged of posting three new pictures (preferably their own).

Rules:
    - As the winner, you choose three of your own pictures. You can use a theme (say bridges or lakes) or just have an assortment.
    - Post them here either directly or through the likes of Photobucket as I have done.
    - Give any hints or additional ground rules you would like to add.
    - Announce the winner once someone can name all three photos.

With Jo's permission, I'm going first:

Photo #1: Name the creek that flows under this bridge.
Image

Photo #2: Name the ski resort shown here.
Image

Photo #3: Name this KVR trestle (either through name or description).
Image

Additional notes:
When you think you can answer all three statements above PM me the answer or post it in this thread. If any additional hints are required, I will post them in this thread.

Good luck!

*pokes*

I can see from my inbox that some of these pictures are in familiar locations. After click on the photos above, does anyone need a hint or clarification on one of them?

You know, Jo. You can play too. A lot of us are quite familiar with Victoria and Vancouver Island, so posting pictures from down your way is allow in this thread too.

Does anyone recognize the ski resort? How about the trestle?

Would gladly do . . . except I could probably never guess the Okanagan shots, after so many years away.

Are you getting some PM responses yet? Right now I think everybody is bogged down in the election threads, lol.

*sigh* I'm no good at this type of game. I know #2, but the rest have me stymied.

I'm confident I know all three answers, but I'll wait another day or so before posting just to give someone else a chance.

I thought I had them pegged but I'm having second thoughts about the waterfall now.
