One of the most difficult for me to identify was the first one I took in Red River. I was given clues but nothing concrete from comments on the New Mexico Fan Page. It was pretty clear from te comments that it was Red River, but I really had no idea where. In searching through GOOGLE maps trying to identify the landscape I selected a location where I thought it was. Once we got to the location, I could see that it didn’t quite fit. There was a young man nearby who was operating a summer tubing attraction, and Jim showed him the photo. The young man looked at the photo and exclaimed “boy this is an old photo, now let me see, what angle is this?” He began turning around and as he got exactly 90 from the way we were standing, he stated “that’s it” and he proceeded to name off the names of the peaks and mountains. Thank You Jim, without you asking this guy, I would have missed this picture. |
