WoGE #454

A preemptive posting this time, since although I solved Luis' WoGE #453 by accidentally looking at Dek Island in Tana Lake, Ethiopia, he hasn't confirmed it yet. But weekend starts very soon, and I expect to be very busy next week, so here it is:

I will only add that I have no idea how that thing ended up where it is!

A week later, a hint seems to be needed!

This is the same thing, looking due east:

Unlike glaciers, these things do not have a habit of forming on mountain tops.

Another week, another hint:

This is outside the area shown in the first two, but should at least get you to the correct continent.


For any new players to Where on (Google) Earth, simply post a comment with latitude and longitude and write something about the (geologic/geographic/hydrographic) feature in the picture. If you win, you get to host the next one. Previous WoGEs are collected by Felix on his blog and a KML file.

WoGE #452

I came back from summer vacation and found Felix' WoGE #451 relatively quickly. I was looking in the wrong hemisphere for a short while, until I managed to get all the visual clues to fit together. Then it became obvious that it had to be New Zealand. :)


This WoGE contains something geologic inside something geologic. If you find one, it should be easy to find out what the other one is, and what is so special about the smallest feature.

Desert again... ;)



I invoke the Schott Rule again for this, since one feature only occurs in a limited area.
