Fly · 11-24-2006, 09:57 AM

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.

Leto · 11-27-2006, 08:19 AM

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.

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

-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.

splck · 12-02-2006, 01:02 PM

Columbia icefield?

Bossnass · 12-02-2006, 04:55 PM

Yeah, close enough.

The Columbia Icefields Welcome Centre.

splck · 12-02-2006, 06:26 PM

next up...

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

..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

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

bah, one of these days i'll make it out west and can answer some of these too.

splck · 12-04-2006, 06:52 AM

alrighty then...next up

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?
