How bout this one?

Near Juneau?

[NewMoon]

Yes,
More specific?

 

[CAVU]

Looks like Point Retreat Lighthouse at the northern tip of Admiralty Island.

 

[NewMoon]

Right you are! Point Retreat from the west, looking at the mountains above and north of the Juneau area.

 

[CAVU]

Unfortunately the picture doesn't show any landmarks but I am pretty sure I was the first C-Dory to ever pass through this National Monument. I got a lot strange looks.

 

[Doryman]

Yes,
More specific?

I've never been to Alaska on my own boat (yet!), but I took my girls on an Alaskan cruise once and one of the optional ($$$!) shore excursions was a nature cruise out of Juneau. The photo reminded me of that cruise -- I am happy that I remembered it correctly even if I can't be more specific.

CAVU, would it be Four Corners?

 

[Knotty C]

CAVU,

Death Valley

 

[Knotty C]

Here's one for you,



It's in BC, Canada

Hey, I don't think anyone identified this one yet. Is it Marina Island west of Cortes Island?

 

[Larry H]

Nope, but here's another hint.

It's north of Cape Caution in BC, looking east. Cruise ships pass by it.

 

[Knotty C]

Larry,

How about Egg Island?

 

[Larry H]

And we have a winner!!

Yes, it is Egg Island!

 

[Knotty C]

Ok, Here is one for you.

Sorry for the delay but right you are. We stopped there on our way back from the Lake Powell cruise.

We thought it was DV :thup

We visited DV last fall, Dee's youngest works at Furnace Creek Ranch. DV is awesome!! :thup :thup

I guess we have two photos that need ID. :smilep

We will look for the next photo to post.

I think we need a hint.

 

[Knotty C]

It's a notable totem pole in SE Alaska. The photo was taken from our CD in the inside passage.

 

[NewMoon]

Kake?

 

[Knotty C]

Kake?

Yes, that's right. We fueled at Kake between Petersburg and Juneau so we could make the side trip up the Tracy Arm. The totem pole (as we understand it) is the world's tallest at 132.5 feet and was featured at the World's Fair in Japan. Kake is on the north end of Kuprenof Island. We saw Humpback Whales bubble feeding heading north and south on our trip in 2007 and also Orcas in this area.
