Mystery photo number five

July 5, 2012 by Dave Knadler

Google this.

These not-so-cryptic letters are associated with a landmark quite a ways from anywhere, along a road less traveled. Can you tell what it is?

For the three-point bonus, name the time period that makes this remote area so interesting.

More along these lines:

  • It’s all about the altitude
  • All ghost and no townAll ghost and no town
  • Mystery photo number twelve
  • Beach BoysKnow these lyrics?
  • The boy is back in townThe boy is back in town

    Nevermind…..

    Agate Fossil Beds National Monument

    Neogene Period.

    Sorry to guess twice, but I realized my letters didn’t work with the first guess.

      Mark gets one point, for a total of two.

      The time period remains in play.

    Ok, since no one else seems to be working on this one… The National Park Service website leads to guess: Miocene Period.

    Even if I’m wrong, this is my last guess for this question.

      Mark gets three points, for a total of five.

      I realize the sign picture was not very imaginative.
