"Just press two for awhile, when I answer, you'll know that you've pressed 2 enough" - RIP Mitch

Here's an easy one at an unusual angle. If you guys have a hard time I'll do a different side.

Untrue. St. Helens is much greener than this mountain. You're right about the roads and houses though, which is why I was surprised someone guessed Moab.

Yes it is Scottsdale. My bad Trep. I meant the entire PHX metro. Wiki says it's in Paradise Valley and Pheonix center, but I know part of it is in Scottsdale.





Can anyone guess which mountain?

Scottsdale works for me. It's Camelback mountain. There's some great driving roads going up that thing, but you can't take 'em too fast because the entire hill is residential. Some cool houses to look at, nonetheless.
