i'm gonna say that is in smithers

Bossnass 11-24-2006 02:08 PM

I'm not sure how to proceed other than guessing. I still think its an interior BC hill. I've only been to panorama a couple times years ago, so I don't recognize anything. I could be very early or late season Fernie, but not quite.

Kimberly?

splck 11-24-2006 04:42 PM

not Smithers or Kimberly.
It's south west of kimberly.

Isn't Smithers way north? Like just inland from Prince Rupert?

There aren't a whole lot of places south of Kimberly... Fernie would be my first guess, but I know that is to the east of Kimberly without looking at a map. I've been to Apex, which is west of, and I think south of Kimberly, but I think you already took that as one of my guesses. I think Big White is more north too, but that could be the little village in your picture.

After a bit of looking at a map, I think it is Mt. Baldy.

splck 11-25-2006 09:56 AM

yeah, Smithers is way North.
This place is very close to the US border in the Kootenays. I thought you'd know it.

Bossnass 11-25-2006 10:43 AM

Damn, so did I. Several years of my life were devoted to being on snow.

Red Mountain? One of my coaches way back when was from Rossland too.

splck 11-25-2006 10:57 AM

there ya go, Red mountain. fantastic skiing there if you like steep shit and lots of snow (who doesn't?)
You're up.

Bossnass 11-26-2006 12:33 PM

I think I would have been depressed if I hadn't eventually got it.

Tim Horton's near Whitehorse?

Bossnass 11-27-2006 03:13 PM

Nope. The picture scaling is misleading... it would make one gigantic tims.

Leto 11-28-2006 05:43 AM

yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. it would. :thumbsup:

Bossnass 11-28-2006 09:48 AM

This is in Alberta. You can buy coffee inside, at least I assume so.

Leto 11-29-2006 03:32 AM

jasper lodge?

Bossnass 11-29-2006 08:05 AM

It is kinda in the middle of nowhere. Sure, you could say the same thing about jasper, but this is even more in the middle of nowhere. A somewhat significant drive to anything sizable.

splck 11-29-2006 05:32 PM

the rim rock?

Bossnass 11-29-2006 06:43 PM

Banff is not in the middle of nowhere. Banff is one of the 'sizable' locations that you would have to drive to from the above posted picture.

Fly 12-02-2006 08:34 AM

damn that's a tough one Boss

-In Alberta
-Isolated, a bit of a drive away
-looks like it is in the mountains
-Alberta doesn't have that many mountain roads, and they pretty much just connect the dots between sights.
-somewhat related to Banff, in that one of the places closest to it is Banff
-if anyone other than Fly or Splck was complaining, I'd be annoyed. It isn't a Toronto bridge.

Bossnass 12-02-2006 04:55 PM

Yeah, close enough.

Bossnass 12-02-2006 07:20 PM

In my previous mentions of skiing at Apex mountain, I spent some time in Penticton. I never actually made it aboard the S.S. Sicamous.

splck 12-02-2006 11:21 PM

I've wobbled past the Sicamous a few times too, but never made it inside :thumbsup: ..you're up.

Leto 12-03-2006 08:37 AM

I've done some tree planting around Shuswap.... but I was going to guess a fancy bridge in Toronto...

Bossnass 12-03-2006 09:24 PM

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...nass/gimme.jpg

Easier.

splck 12-03-2006 09:57 PM

Banff Springs Hotel?

Bossnass 12-03-2006 10:01 PM

Yep. Game on.

Daval 12-04-2006 05:58 AM

splck 12-04-2006 06:52 AM

anitalife2 12-04-2006 08:58 PM

Northern Hellberta.

Leto 12-07-2006 01:55 PM

whitehorse?

splck 12-07-2006 03:45 PM

Nope, none of the above. You need to head East. Our Ontario friends here should get this one.

fresnelly 12-07-2006 05:17 PM

Harrison Park in Owen Sound?

Sticky 12-08-2006 09:59 AM

springbank park london ontario

splck 12-08-2006 04:07 PM

nope. it's near the Ottawa river...

Leto 12-15-2006 11:43 AM

It must be a famous site... does anybody know? more hints maybe?

Charlatan 12-15-2006 03:16 PM

That looks familiar but I can't place it.

Ch'i 12-15-2006 03:29 PM

Beachburg?

splck 12-16-2006 12:15 AM

ok a hint...it's close to a Canadian Forces base.

Ch'i 12-16-2006 12:53 AM

CFB Borden Golf Course?
