National Park Week Quiz #6: Mystery Photo

This photo is tightly cropped, but there's enough here for you to work with.

Do you know what the National Park Week Quiz #6 photo depicts and what national park it was taken in? If you can provide both pieces of information before 12:00 midnight EST today you will be eligible for Traveler’s National Park Week prize drawing and a chance to win a National Geographic Trails Illustrated Map for the national park of your choice.

The answer and a list of readers who answered correctly will be posted in tomorrow's Traveler.

No cheating!

If we catch you Googling or engaged in other sneakery we will make you write on the whiteboard 100 times: "Tectonic plates float at an elevation that depends on their thickness and density, exhibiting isostacy attributable to gravitational equilibrium between the earth's lithosphere and asthenosphere."

You're in, EEW, but you have got to use the servants entrance. That particular adjective is not the one we need.


Welcome to the winners circle, BTexan. Please use the servants entrance. Your answer lacks a qualifier that makes a difference.


You're new around these parts, aren't you SCA? You're in the ballpark, but we're pretty darn picky on Thursdays. We want to know exactly what the object of the photo is.


How about a winch used to raise the sails on one of the ships at the San Francisco Maritime National Nistorical Park?


No winches were deployed to raise any sails in this photo, viewmtn.
SCA, you've essentially got it -- you're missing a particular adjective -- but we'll let you in so sit back and enjoy the rest of the guesses!


Bingo, celbert! You even supplied the critical adjective. Enter the winners circle by the front door and educate those slackers about that critical qualifier. Go ahead and lord it over them if it pleases you. ;o)


You're already in the winners circle, SCA, so it doesn't matter that the additional info you supplied is incorrect. I do suggest that you quit while you are ahead, however, and just enjoy watching others wrestle with this thing.
