Hi, Tom, you're very close. That photo is taken from Henninger Flats which is right above Altadena and just west of Sierra Madre. Good eye.

I thought that photo was so cool that I had to include it even though the post was about alcohol as a fuel.

I did however do all the testing from right near where that photo was taken, so I guess it's sort of on topic.
