Reading all the arguments going on here are humorous and all, but I was thinking about a way to cut out the arguments. So let's play a game.

Easy. South Kinsman, looking west or northwest. Here's my photo from nearly the same spot. (Plus, I knew from your posts that you'd hiked in that neighborhood recently.)

No, sorry. Wrong state, by far.

I haven't a clue, but great photo nonetheless. I await the answer.

CT. Like Pine Swamp Brook lean to area? (just a guess, I never went down to the lean to).

I was thinking maybe some of the many lakes in Maine or maybe Jersey?

I certainly hope not... or I am in trouble for not getting out more. ;)

I wonder if we could read the sign if we could figure it out.
Did LW leave us?:(

It looks like it says, "excessive liquid makes composting very difficult".
Hmm, I hope that is why we took the shot.

Beaver Brook shelter privy?
Beaver Brook shelter privy?
Nope... It is Kinsman Pond Shelter Privy... thought the previous pic and the hazy pond in the background would make it easy.
Nice game, Bulldawg. Hope others join.
Maine?..

If you're talking about the pond and flowers (not the privy) -- nope nope and nope. Don't know about you boys and girls but it's the only place I saw wild iris on the trail. Another hint: it's south of the Whites... just barely.
Nice game, Bulldawg. How bout this 'un? Hint: the mosquitoes nearly carried me away.

Just north of Hanover?

I have no idea but I love the idea of your thread. I'm going to guess north of NC
Just north of Hanover?
Dat's the one! Nicely done. Possibly called "Goose Pond" -- but in any case, it's just off Goose Pond Road, which is just before you ascend Holt's Ledge nobo.
Bulldawg

Yep. It's an unnamed beaver pond on Hewes Brook - Goose Pond is further east. Just off to the right (NOBO) on the locally named Holt's Ledge Trail about a 1/4 mile off Goose Pond Rd. in Lyme, NH. Was there two weeks ago. My daughter slipped off one of the logs going through the boggy area there and got her trailname - Soggyfeet.

That's right, this is the second nice view off of Blood Mountain, about 300 yards from the summit.
Now for another one. This one is a bit tougher I think.
