Scoobz0202 · 03-22-2010, 08:10 PM

That's fucked up, though.

When I asked you earlier if you wanted me to go that's what i was going ot post so now I have to think of something else

Scoobz0202 · 03-22-2010, 08:11 PM

Yea, turn the labels on and look towards the northwest at the larger, fenced in area with all the rectangle buildings.

ass. so you'd already done the research to see what it was...that's pretty easy.

What are the odds that 2 people would think of a place where some of the greatest human atrocities occurred?

I'm beginning to worry about you boys...

I was looking for the Wolf's Lair first. Figured something that was historically significant would be like...legit.

Plus, I've always been a big WWII history guy.

terpkristin · 03-22-2010, 08:48 PM

Well, wherever it is, looks like it's a bay/sheltered water of some sort. Not a lot of waves.

/tk

Scoobz0202 · 03-22-2010, 08:49 PM

I can keep on zooming out, or should I just acknowledge that it has only been 15 minutes and wait a little longer.

gstelmack · 03-22-2010, 08:50 PM

The key has to be the rock formations off the beach, but I don't recognize them at all.

QuikSand · 03-22-2010, 08:51 PM

Ok, fairly deserted area...airstrip nearby...but the first image, supposedly gettable, really just shows a westward facing beach with some rocky(?) clutter in the water. Just trying to say stuff in hopes this dislodges something with someone...

Scoobz0202 · 03-22-2010, 08:51 PM

cross out rock formations and substitute it with something else.

It looked like a shipwreck to me.

Shkspr · 03-22-2010, 08:54 PM

Flood waters, maybe? It's not the Louisiana coast, is it?

I have no handle at all if this will prove too hard, too easy, or juuuust right.

I felt the original image was a good one with the ship wreckage, but I guess if it was hard to make out that it was wreckage then it would just be any other beach.

I've been searching the area where the Exxon Valdez ran aground but can't find anything that matches, or Google does not have imagery at that resolution.

nm, since Quik got it. Good one with Iwo!

gstelmack · 03-22-2010, 09:06 PM

Aargh, I actually knew the Mike Vick one right off from the news stories.
