Been a while since I ran a trivia game in this forum, so here goes...
I will post a picture of a PEAK, CRAG, ROUTE or RANGE...
Your task is to correctly identify whatever question I ask with the picture, which will usually be NAME THIS PEAK (or ROUTE, or CRAG)...
You are on your honor not to check the properties of the picture for hints, or back link to the websites that I am borrowing the images from...
The first correct answer gets a point, along with .5 points for any correct answers within ONE MINUTE of the first correct answer...
I will keep a running tally of points scored on this post, and try to edit it to reflect the correct score as soon as possible...
I am not on the computer 24/7, so there may be a delay between pictures posted, and tallying correct answers...
Feel free to PM me image links to your MYSTERY PEAK, ROUTE or CRAG also, I may use it in the game, but the sender is not allowed to guess...

You know what?
It would be fun if you mix the filenames of the pics, so everyone trying to sneak in an answer by just clicking on "picture properties" would get the wrong name... 8^) 8^) 8^)

But I would have to "illegally" import the picture and change the file name to host it on our website to do that, so I won't. Just gonna have to go with TRUST here... :wink:
Also, they will not all be that easy, and I will have several that you won't be able to find with the "properties"... :twisted:
Anyhow...anykineclimb gets the first point...

In reply to: 980!!! :wink: ummmm is it tahquitz?
Nah, the hills on the sides of the wall are too tall to be tahquitz. Tahquitz really stands out from the surrounding hills and mountains.... This is more of a cliffside thing...

It does look a lot like Suicide, though, according to all the other angle photos I can find.
