My photo is of the area on the Columbia River just below Wells Dam.
The next photo posting is up for grabs.
Go ahead and post up a good one.

I've never been there. Here's a good one, lots of identifying landmarks. The lake to the left of the big hill, an aerial view from a big cliff:

OK We'll let the above photo run until about 10:00 am today and if no one gets it we'll have a pass and get a new posting.

OK, I gave it an extra hour and didn't have any new posts. Let's have someone other than nate or me post up a picture.
It's open season, lets see a good one so we can keep the game going.

All my pics are of alpine lakes so they are probably pretty obscure and hard to guess. Sorry guys!

Sorry, not the Sultan.

As it is getting on the 24 hour time limit, here are a couple of hints.

Nate was close, geographically speaking.
It's know as a good late run chum and silver river.

Bonus hint: The picture was taken from a dirt launch site looking south.

General Game Rules:
1. Photos must be of Washington Lakes or Rivers.
2. Photos should show enough background scenery to make a fair guess.
3. First correct answer posts the next photo.
4. Winner will have 24hrs to post next photo or win will be considered a pass and next photo entry will become first come first served. 5. Photo poster has the responsibility to monitor the game and their posted photo and give hints as may be necessary.
6. Let’s keep it fun and simple.

Hey Mallard,
You got it by default, it’s been three days without a response to your Chehalis River guess so I'll consider you a winner and say go ahead and post up a photo.
