    Hmm, could be Colorado, but I'm a little skeptical. I'm not sure where you have a body of water to get that view, and most of the high rocky areas like that that I'm aware of are not usually conducive to the ATVs (but there's a lot of Colorado I'm not that familiar with so I could certainly be wrong).

    Not exactly opposite Colorado, but could it be overlooking Lake Wakatipu to Ben Lomond, Queenstown, New Zealand?

    Ha ha. Getting very very close. A little bit more out of the way than that.

    In 2006, Quad bike tours were operating out of the recently established Cardrona Adventure Park. Now Cardrona Horse Trekking & Quadbiking and, If that’s the right location, the old Polaris Predators (as in the photo) appear to have been replaced by a fleet of late model Yamaha 350-450cc Quad bikes - “to explore from the valley floor to the top of the Cardrona mountains.” Might be way off there though.
    For many years I travelled that Cardrona Valley Road around eight times per year – providing the Crown Range Road was open – my favourite NZ alpine road.

    You're in the right area, but the photos are a bit closer to the coast, and a bit further North. Wasn't a guided tour, just a few mates, and we actually got chased out 😁
    Very naughty boys ha ha ha

    Mt Dobson. About 15kms West of Fairley. Overlooking Lake Tekapo in the original image.
    Someone else's turn.

    FREE TURN
    A free turn is now on offer, be the first to post a new challenge.
    ”keep in mind that people must have a chance to guess it”
    It’s very easy to post photos of obscure locations that are impossible to find by research, but that is not within the spirit of the game.

    Do you think my photo was a bit too obscure? I

    Ghundred, your photo was about the fourth we’ve had so far in this thread that has not been able to be found by research. It’s often difficult to judge how difficult a photo might be, but they should be able to be found and/or verified independently by using research such as map street view, photo sphere, sat. view, other photos, etc. We’ve all overlooked this at some point in the past, so don't worry about it.
    Max.
