I'm running out of pictures to post for this game!

Despite looking serene, this is the most horrendous patch of buckthorn I have ever encountered. It turns out that it is easily bypassed on the left, but I took the direct BW4 variation.

No, but it likely looked very similar recently :D
Its not as dangerous as it looks. The white in the water is pretty much froth, I think from decaying vegetation or wherever that froth comes from.

Tinaballina - Not fish canyon...

One more tougher hint before getting easy...there be a lot of people that use this trail.

O.K. AW, I know you made that last one super-easy with the last picture. I was just lucky to be on-line at the time.

How about this one: Where, and where taken from?

Don't want to have hijacked the thread by nitpicking over the answer. Taco got closest first. It's the East Twin, taken from the ridge to the triplets.

I took this guy from a bit further out.
