Aww.

Changed my mind. New one is posted below. It's grainy, but it went from a large file of ?? to a nine.

Need another hint? This crowd? Admittedly if someone posted this site last year I wouldn't know either.

:ohmygod: Not solved yet? Okay, to see this one must hike up a trail in a particular National Park in BC near the Rockies.

Geez I'm giving it away now.

:130: We have a winner! Hold your breath, GordonH :discodance:

He correctly identified this site as the remains of Glacier House, a former hotel which at one time featured a bowling alley. It was at a railway stop.

It is found in Glacier National Park at the Illecillewaen Campground. Park there for the day and hike the 3 kms or so up one side of the river, cross a bridge and hike back on the other side of the river and either way, you come across the ruins with interpretation signs there to read about the hotel. It's an easy family hike.

Ooops, I should have said not wanting to win.

So whomever happens to have a pic they want to post.... please go ahead.

Added later:
Here a refresher on how to post picture on the forum

Queen K wrote:Everyones formula for posting photos. I've taken it step by step and hopefully haven't taken anything for granted. I know that threw me off at first, trying to follow incomplete instructions because someone thought it was obvious what should happen next.

1. Start new field. That's clicking on POSTREPLY.
2. Scroll down, see "UP LOAD ATTACHMENTS", click on "up load attachments."
3. See the Browse field? Click on "Browse."
4. Clicking on Browse should take you to your "Pictures". On mine, it's "pictures", that's what I see.
5. Clicking on "Pictures" gives me my "Pictures Library".
6. I scroll, pick a tantalizing photo, resize below 250 whatever it is, rename and check "properties", see that it's right.
7. Return to Castanet Forum Photo Contest.
8. Up load the chosen photo via clicking on "Upload Attachments."
9. It shows up on Castanet's Filename. I click on "Add the File."
10. Wait for it to load, it will tell you if you didn't size it down far enough, or clearly be load if you did.
11. Click on "Submit."

Now some may say I went into too much detail but that is because it's obvious to YOU. But for those learning, they need detail.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.

Been a while since I knew where any of these pics have been.

Where will you find this very unique bench?
