When ever I look at pics that people have posted I like to try to guess the general location/area where the shot (photo) was taken based on the background....So far noone has ever confirmed weather I was right or not...not sure why:twisted:

Thought it would be interesting to see if anyone could recognize some fairly distinctive vistas that I have photographed.

I have 3 shots of some views (all excellent mule deer country)...all within 1.25 hour drive of kamloops.

I know....There is allot of country within 1 hour of Kamloops....Just wanted to try it.

For practicality's sake I will only confirm if all three are correct

I will appolgize in advance it turns out to be a lame exercise.

Sorry guy/gals....I have never really posted photos...Please try copying the link and pasting int the browser window. If that does not work I will have to go back and try again.

Hint: one is N/W and the other two are S/W

My gosh I just got goosebumps looking at those pics. Absolutely stunning! I have no idea where those were taken, but I'd love to go there.

Looks more like up above the Coquihalla looking toward Nicola Lake and the old highway to Kamloops.

Trap lake, Nicola Lake, and Brookmere. That's my guess.

Sorry guys...I kind of screwed up this post by leaving labels on my photos in photo bucket account so I will just let you know:

View of Nicola lake from the Swakum mountain road (just north of Merritt)
View of Trapp lake from the hills to the west side of the highway.
View looking north toward Marble Range provincial part (massive burn area) from top of Porcupine Peak (N/W of Clinton)

I can see that it would not have been long to get all 3 with the miles and miles of experience out there.
