Contest Clues (Cont'd)

Keep your guesses coming, friends!

1. This location is one of the few temperate rainforests in the world, and is also one of the largest. Moss is abundant (obviously).

2. This man:

has three cities named after him in the same region and was the first European to see this mountain. As was his habit, he named it after a friend.

3. You might say this landmark was in labor for 9 hours.

4. All I'm going to say is:

5. Three decades ago, this place had more glaciers than any place in the US outside of Canada. Brrrrrrr.

6. A popular place for Free Willy, Shamu, and their friends.

7. Part of a very popular modern book series is set in this location. I know I'll be on the lookout for big, burly, shifty-type characters.

It's Booked! ...and a CONTEST.

Our second anniversary trip is now official! We've been planning it for months, but yesterday we hunkered down, got most of the details kinked out, and soon enough we'll be on our way... in 67 days that is.

Wanna know where we're going?

...



...


Well, you have to guess!

Only thing is, it's more than just one place...



So what do you do, now?

1. Name the state and specific locations from the image (CLUE ONE) above.
2. Send me an e-mail with your answers.
   

The first person with the correct answers GETS A PRIZE.

(No really, I'm serious! It's rather well-suited to the theme of the trip, I should add...)

This will be the first of daily clues I'll offer through Tuesday. So if at any point, you've already submitted your answers and you change your mind, just guess again! And as you will notice, I've disabled comments so as to give a fair advantage to everyone participating (to trust their answers aren't being copied.)

Have at it, friends!
