I've seen this topic on another forum, and thought it might be fun to get started here. The rules are simple: identify the spot of the posted photo. If you get it right, you are next up to post a photo of a beloved place you've visited.
This is a great way for all of us to see cool photos of wonderful places, and learn a bit more about the great destinations there are in our wilderness.

If you think you know where this is, give it a shot! And no fair following the link!

In the Cathedral Range in Yosemite. You were close.
close may count in horseshoes and hand grenades, but will get you badly lost in wilderness travel...and I am heading off for a camping trip right this moment, head hung in shame and nursing my sorrow...Actually, I think I went by Echo Lake once, on a x-country jaunt from the Nelson Lakes area to Cathedral Lakes. Nice area.
