Game: Where-is-it? (international)

[icefest]

Makarora River valley. Appears to not be from a Track?
But a little north of the Makarora Gorge - near the tree line?
Maybe a range traverse? [Ka Tiritiri O Te Moana]

Pretty darn spot on. I was ascending the ridge south of the Makarora Gorge, to get to a canyoning stream.

OK

Staying in New Zealand

[GregR]

Been a long long time since I've been there, but reminds me of Cape Maria Van Deiman

[eggs]

Maybe 350km south from there?

[eggs]

Before we reach March - this is at the southern end of Piha beach.
Anyone next.

[johnw]

Sorry eggs. As a long time supporter of this version of the game I somehow lost track of this one. Seems to be very few players now.
Anyway here's a somewhat unusual one. I'm on a walk with plenty of flora and fauna, albeit not exactly a bushwalk.
I did kayak this river for several kms the following morning, NZ:

Avon River, Christchurch Botanic Gardens, Canterbury New Zealand

Things can get a bit shaky around here.

You've only narrowed it down to NZ, however I think it's in Christchurch

[johnw]

That's probably true. Yes, you've narrowed it down to the correct city, but where?

[GregR]

I can't imagine punting anywhere other than on the Avon river personally.

Yes, nice for a paddle too. Strolling around the botanic gardens here. Yours Greg.

[GregR]

Well keeping with the theme (sort of!)

In Great Britain.

[johnw]

I may have stumbled onto the connection . My search suggests Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin.

indeed it is John. Not in Christchurch, but Christ Church Dublin Ireland- not a shaky Isle but further north they have had their troubles .

Can't wait to get on the plane in April and get some new shots to enter.

Go John.

[johnw]

Thank you Greg. Yes it's great to be travelling again, WA, SA, outback NSW in April, QLD in May, nothing OS planned as yet.
We actually encountered some Americans in the city last week asking for directions.
Haven't had that experience in a long time . With that thought in mind, USA:

Lava flows in Hawaii?

[johnw]

Lava flows in Hawaii?

Good work, getting there. I'm looking for the name of the dormant volcano in the distance.

[Last]

Probably either Mauna Loa or Maunu Kea. Lets say Loa.

[johnw]

Not Mauna Loa. It's still active, erupted last November. I'm on a different island with a large dormant volcano.

[johnw]

I'm on Maui if it helps...

[johnw]

Looking up towards an elevation of 3,055 m/10,023 ft. I've posted from the summit previously.

[johnw]

H-l--k-la

[Graham51]

Google says Haleakala.

[johnw]

Google says Haleakala.

Google is right Graham. I'm looking towards Haleakala from the lava flows trail at La Perouse Bay near the start of the "Kings Highway" hiking trail.
Over to you.

[Graham51]

Where/what is this?

[Graham51]

Sorry, forgot to resize the picture.
Where/what is this?

[icefest]

All I can say is that if you guess Courchevel Altiport then you're too far west!

[Graham51]

Yes, it’s certainly well east of there. I also forgot to say it’s in Asia.

[icefest]

It might even be on the margin of a subcontinent!
