Too far east. It's true, ladies dig the squatch but that wasn't on my mind. Something water-related.

Looks like the outflow from the South Fork of Big Rock Creek near the South Fork Campground. Thinking about the ‘sanitation’ of the children playing in the water in diapers… Where’s my steri-pen?

Your thinking
I wonder if anyone will see me peeing in the stream?

Too far north, but I was thinking about dirty diapers. Two points for you!

The East Fork of the mighty San Gabriel River. That's the bench that carries the Bridge to Nowhere / Narrows trail behind you.

Mount Baldy Road.
Your thinking I hope someone picks me up because I'm too tired to walk.

You're just above the entrance to Ice House giving cars the thumbs-up as they head to Manker.

Top scores after round 3:

Girl Hiker: 38
Elwood: 32
Uncle Rico: 32
David R: 21
AW: 14
Anarchist: 10

Tonight at midnight, to mark the Forest's reopening, I will post an "impossible" pic worth big points depending on how close your guess is to the actual location. One guess per person. Then next week I'll continue with a normal round.

Yay, the Forest is open again!

If you guess the Impossible Selfie within one mile, you earn 30 points; within five miles, you earn 20 points; and within ten miles, 10 points. Everyone else gets 5 points for playing. Only one guess per person. Be as specific as possible. You can pick the same location as someone else if you think they are right. You have until Monday morning to post your guess.
