You mean the big red thing? Um, south of El Centro, maybe around a known geothermal area?

Geology Picture of the Week, May 18-25, 2003 (and nobody answered last week's WhereIsIt!)

50 percent of American students cant find America on the map.

I'll give it a shot:

It's the western hemisphere of the Earth?

[TaxRelief]

It is Vancouver Island.

Mt St Helens

Southwestern US. The redrock country is my old stomping ground. St. George Utah is located in some of the most interesting and diverse geological terrain in the United States. The lake is the Great Salt Lake, and the snow is covering the Wasatch Range.

I saw it, but I'm not sure which feature you are referring to.

California's Central Valley is a significant feature in the southwest portion of the photo. The Channel Islands and Santa Barbar Channel are easily seen. I would think the "pinkish" feature east of that is probably outcrops of the Morrison Formation or Navajo Sandstone. That's just my first pass.
