Bird’s Eye View Contest

by Lee — Sunday, 7/5/09, 12:00 pm

Last week’s contest was won by ‘Truth Teller’ in only 12 minutes. It was the National Gallery in Ottawa, Ontario.

This week’s is a little more rural, good luck!

    It’s a photo of the tapeworm in Pooper’s colon, which means it’s somewhere in Kirkland.

    Lariat Loop Road, just southwest of Golden CO.

    I could swear that vehicle is in a different spot in the view I clipped.

    Nice win, N! There are a couple of places that have some overlapping views. You may have caught the alternate view.

    I thought it was that road in Monte Carlo that Grace Kelly and Cary Grant drove down in To Catch a Thief.

    It would really be great if Horse’s Ass dropped this feature, which is not political in any way, and doesn’t belong here.

    Obviously, this is just for fun Heath. Get a life.

    I was going to go for my backyard – sometimes it seems like taking out the trash is a long drive….

    I’m sure there are still people who complain that crossword puzzles and the bridge column don’t belong in newspapers too because they’re not news.

    Heath it would be great if you died because you’re kind of a tool and don’t belong here. I like the Bird’s Eye contest, I just always forget about it until late Sunday night.

    “It would really be great if Horse’s Ass dropped this feature”

    No it wouldn’t. Some of us like this “feature”.

    “which is not political in any way”

    So?

    “and doesn’t belong here.”

    It doesn’t?!??! Please do tell. What, exactly, are the rules about what can and cannot go here.

    Well, apparently anything can go here.

    troll, womanoftruth, puddy, cyniclown, mark1……

    So complaining about a fun feature, with no agenda other than having some fun just seems like complaining just to complain.

    STFU and give your mom back her computer, Heath.

    @1…RR…

    What prompts you to be so familiar with my colon? Fetish perhaps?

    And I no longer live in Kirkland.

    sparky, here’s what I recall of the process…

    a) It’s obvious that this is a switchback in the Mountain West, so I first thought of Beartooth Pass in Wyoming, which I drove a few years ago. I don’t think it’s been bird’s-eyed yet, so that wasn’t it.

    b) I then thought about the Pike’s Peak auto road, but again there’s no bird’s-eye.

    c) Next idea was to look for passes in areas with good bird’s-eye coverage. The nearest one to Pike’s Peak is Denver, so I started looking for switchbacks west of there. Which is basically where Golden is located.

    For the record, I’ve passed through Golden (not for the Coors), but don’t think I’ve been on that particular road.

    Lariat Loop Road has a lot more funky twists and turns. I like this one.
