Not saying this is the case here but......you DO know that malicious
code can now be installed in a photo image.  Look at the image and
you're infected.  It exploites a fault in Windows or Explorer, not sure
which.  There is a patch out there somewhere.......

Why else would someone post an image with such an odd message attached
and then not respond further.

Just a thought.
I might be wrong.

Hello,

If you go to the main page (http://oleksy.ovh.org/), it appears to be 
someone with a fixation on Jan-Michael Vincent (pilot in the old AirWolf TV 
series)

My guess is Colorado...

So he's looking for the mach one plus attack helicopter that never breaks 
down or runs out of ammunition, thats hidden in a cave that no one in the 
goverment can find using all their vast resources and technology.

No, could be Canada.
If in the US, most likely in the Pacific NW away from the volcanic parts
of the Cascades.  But with a file name like stiched, I would wonder.
You really want one of the photointerpreters who can ID Taliban strong
points.

What's this got to do with Australia?  They don't have mountains which look
like this.

It does look a lot like the Cascades. Note the clearcut in
the foreground. That little trio of peaks could be anything.

Thanks for those who answered seriously.
This photo is from Airwolf and I didn't say it's great or special. I
just wanted to know where was it taken. I've posted this topic to
couple of groups to increase the chance that someone who has been there
before will answer.
The name of the file should be 'stitched' cause it was made from 2
screenshots.

sure they do, though the taswegians often like to claim that they're
not actually part of australia.  We even have trees that like.  What we
don't have is sea close enough to the mountains like that.

I didn't mean Australia but United States. Airwolf was filmed in
California, but this scene could be taken from other movie.

It could be a fog.

It's a part of the movie where you can see this view.

Aspens mean it could be anywhere in North America over 9,000 ft.

What's on the bottom half of the photo?

Happy little clouds.  I still see it on sometimes. In fact, my sister-in-law 
took a B.R. Style painting class.  Every class, she leaves with a new 
painting.  Some of them look pretty good, too.  But I'm sure its not the 
same as watching the show.  Without the beard, its nothing.

The quality of the image isn't enough for me to think that it's a clear cut.
I am uncertain.

You use as much ancillary information as possible.
I never really saw much of the Airwolf series.  A DOD friend just reopened
up our largest wind tunnel at work for DOD use (Army and USAF). While it
is true that a lot of filming takes place in CA, this scene looks not
quite like anything near the usual filming areas. So DOD helo research
is next door.

If you are going on the basis of TV and film, you look for signature
features in the background (use care as this distracts from story).
So if you are talking say Movie Flat, Alabama Hills, near Lone Pine,
this looks too moist.  And that's just 1 grainy/blurry picture.
So by process of elimination, you consider features in other similar
ranges.  Also the geometry is not quite right.
So those peaks are glaciated and non-volcanic.
Your lighting has shadows facing you, so you are basically in the S
portion of the sky.

The 3 near by summits aren't Mt. Whitney near Lone Pine.
The configuration doesn't have a satellite peak sharp enough near by to
appear like Keeler or Day Needle.  You are trying to ID them on the
basis of geomorphogical.  Rick is a geologist: there is a specific name
for the kind of fault-block peak which has one sharp side and a gradual
side which Whitney is.  You can't infer anything about the back sides of
these 3 summits.

Not every series or film is done in CA near Lone Pine. Conrad did a
couple of series (High Mtn. Rangers) near Kirkwood and Markleville.
I don't see any distinct signatures of tht area here.  If you find the
shooting location history that would help.

It can't be the Trinity Alps (much smaller range, Thompson looks nothing
like these [blocky]).  Looking at the long distant snow couloir:
Colorado?  Holy Cross w/o the cross?
But then that doesn't reconcile with 3 summits N of it.

Don't discount British Columbia: a cheaper place to film than CA.
I just don't know those 2 areas well enough to ID a photo like this.
It would help to have the entire sequence.

You then look for features/signatures.  You look at films and you CAN ID
Whitney: Great Race, Star Trek Generations, etc. GI Jane: The road to
Cottonwood Lakes as Libya.  Mt. Williamson's long ridge and twice summits.

Earth science types get trained to look for things and features.
That's all www.asprs.org.  The trick is knowing your limitations.
There is a declassified Agency paper by their best analyst on these
kinds of faux pas.  But he also wrote a book about some of this:



'He was eager to learn more about the photo-interpretation process.
"Where do you get photo interpreters?  How much do you pay them?
How do you train them?  Are they satisified with their work?"
        --Pres. John Kennedy
He indicated he would like to visit the Center and observe the high technology
of interpretation at work.
Page 58
Eyeball to Eyeball
Dino Brugioni

        'Photo interpreters can recognize, identify, and accurately describe
in detail natural and cultural features on photography not apparent to
unsophisticated or untrained eyes.  Their writing style, however, is often
cryptic, terse, and military-oriented.  Of necessity, this type of
reporting has to be reworked and collated for presentation to policymakers.
Page 282
Eyeball to Eyeball
Dino Brugioni


The non-climbing people you want to ID pictures is at the aforementioned
Center in DC, a windowless highly protected no nonsense building SE of
the Capitol in the Naval yard.  I have never been inside.
If I ever get to visit, then the outside of the visit would be the most
I could say anything about.

I am pretty certain. It's not avalanche damage. It's not too
steep for trees. There is a road through the bottom of it.
The only thing that makes me hesitate is that the pattern is
a bit funny in terms of straight property line boundaries. I
suppose an old burn is possible, but doesn't seem as likely.

The photo lacks large downed trees in that area.
But I similarly don't see stumps.  It's brush from what I can see.
I can't infer a burn as I see no evidence.  But areas which are merely
brushy can be that way for many different reasons.

The Whitney area, for instance, hasn't had major logging for over 60 years.
The nearest (Johnsondale) mill closed down over 26 years ago (over 60
miles away).  I don't see the lineaments (the lines) you are refering to.

I am cutting down the Followups to r.b. and r.c.  No need to bore
the other groups.

The definition just isn't there for any definitive judgement. The "road" 
could be an artifact of the photgraphy rather than the topography 
itself. The "clear-cut" could easily be brush over ledgy ground. There 
are no clear signs of the skidder/machinery trails needed to clearcut 
such an area. There are no heights from which to string cables for 
moving logs as opposed to ground-based machinery.

It's pretty scenery but for forming any judgements as to the activity or 
lack thereof, the poor definition admits of nothing but conjecture.

Hey!

What the hell is imbedded in that file?

The file gives me an invalid file format with any of my photo programs. 
I used to live in the Canadian Rockies so I downloaded the photo to get
close up looks at things and no go.

Is that one of them new fangled files that jumps Microcrap's Internet
Explorer with imbedded codes?

Glad I use Netscape!

Be wary folks....

Where did you get that idea? Things to consider... The two main 
Characters ran a Helicopter service so Parts for a Bell 222 would
have been easy to get without many questions.

As for ammo it may have carried over 16,000 rounds for the chain guns,
6 Missiles & standard Chaff/ flair package. considering the fuel output 
It could not have taken on more than 12 targets per episode so that's 
easily explained away.  As for why the government could not find it?
Wasn't "Archangel" working in the CIA or something? Pile this baby under 
shit loads of Security & nobody is going to go looking.

This guy posts an AVI clip that shows more... "Hawkes cabin. A nice

So that's where it is & I doubt anyone can go see the cabin as it's 
private property.

I know Big Bear.  Then what's the 3 pronged summit with the snow filled
couloirs coming down? It's not Sugarloaf or San G.

The exterior of Hawke's cabin wasn't filmed at Big Bear Lake. There are
no mountains out there like that: http://oleksy.ovh.org/cabin.jpg
Actually it looks like a montage. The background behind the cabin looks
like some painting. The sky isn't blue.

Some shots were probably filmed at BBL (someone told me that in
Fawnskin) but so far I didn't manage to match the mountain range from
the pictures that google gives me with those from the movie:
http://oleksy.ovh.org/lake.jpg One thing I'm sure. It must be north
shore due to sun position.
