Rattlesnake Point receives its name from the snake-like path cut by glaciers along the edges of the Niagara Escarpment, rather than from the Massassauga Rattlesnake. It is one of the most scenic areas between Toronto and Hamilton, with old cedars, limestone cliffs, beautiful caves, and hiking trails. It is a United Nations Biosphere-protected area.

Grand Canyon to Page, Arizona, East from Big Water, Utah on backcountry roads to Alstrom Point.
This is a stunning drive through a corner of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and some of the most epic scenery around. It can be mostly completed with a standard vehicle in dry conditions, but the final couple miles get significantly more dicey, over tenuously cairn-marked slickrock, and require high clearance.
I'm sure the local folks are used to places like this, but for someone not used to driving in these conditions, getting all the way out here felt like a legit accomplishment.
I'd had this place on my list for years. I was stoked we made it. A highlight of our whirlwind tour of the American Southwest.
Our Navajo guide (Bernard) said stand on the "x" and take the shot. Even though I have stood in this spot a number of years ago as have many others it was fun to frame up this classic shot in beautiful Monument Valley.
Anchored off 'The Tide Pools' of Cabrilo National Monument here in San Diego, California two surfers had the evening break all to themselves!

*The two surfers spread across the waves... they also shred the waves!
The lighthouse at Hurst Point on a wet and windy day. Its a very interesting and atmospheric place near Milford On Sea on the south coast. There also Hurst Castle which is very interesting and great views of the Needles and the Isle Of Wight.

Looking west across the St Clair River towards Port Huron Michigan from the Point Lands in Sarnia Ontario.
From Chimney Rock Trail at Point Reyes National Seashore, this is the view looking east across Drake's Bay toward Mt. Tamalpais and Marin County. The actual chimney rock feature is just out of view behind the point in the center of this photo.

The railing is quite functional but everything points to the old railway inn that used to service the old railway line that is no longer there. So the vanishing point form, the absence of colour and the meaning; the receeding past, seemed to align quite nicely.
