Typically I have never seen any sorts of such landforms east of the Rockies apart from... Nebraska?
I thought it would not be very apparent so that I picked some of the less possible states.
A cool pic (Notice those placenames... Phoenix or Yuma are not strange when compared to these)

Vicksburg Junction? Deer Valley?
xzmattzx January 15th, 2007, 04:19 PM No one has gotten the place yet.
Most of the interestingly-named towns were once mining towns and your stereotypical "Wild West" towns. The names reflect the more informal way of life out West.

xzmattzx January 22nd, 2007, 06:46 AM It's not in Pima County.
I'm not going to answer any more county guesses, since that would make things a little too easy. Are you guys using satellite images? That always helps.
bob rulz January 25th, 2007, 03:52 AM Wickenburg?
xzmattzx January 25th, 2007, 04:56 AM nope
I changed my mind, you can make county guesses now, however, to keep it a little tough, you have to name 3 at a time, and I will only tell you if one of those 3 is correct. If I gave you the correct county, it would be too easy after that.
♣628.finst January 25th, 2007, 09:56 AM Cucklebur? Sedona?

Correct! Both cities are in this picture; either answre would be fine.
Looks like this one was harder than I thought it would be.
OhioTodd January 30th, 2007, 10:06 AM Correct! Both cities are in this picture; either answre would be fine.

Yay! :) do I get any points? This was a hard one. I kept getting the cloud shadows mixed up with hilly greenery.

You get added to my list of winners.:) Other than that, there isn't any prize.
