I was waiting for a good tag to enter the game.

Here is a watertower.



next tag:



This is a border post between Belgium and The Netherlands.
If a border post is not common in the usa any physical sign of a border is ok.

[bonanzadave]

Those are some unique tags (Nice Bike too). Well done and welcome to the game. Maybe DantheMan can get the US (Minnesota) / Canada boarder sign. I think its right in his back yard .

[wouter]

The bike looks good from a distance. When you look close you can see it is an old bike.
I have some more ideas for good tags. I'll check the new tags. But not all tags are possible to get in belgium and my time to ride the bike is limited.

OK, here's the boundary between Canada and the US at Nighthawk, WA:

Actually, it's the Border Station just on the Canadian side...they had no issue with me taking a photo here, but I did not test the friendliness of the American guards (likely just as nice as the Canadians, it is a quiet corner of BC).

[Runningdog]

And, here's the next target.....desert, although let's be fair, and include grasslands, or any other relatively untrampled natural area:

[cowboyup3371]

Wow, I never thought of Canada being a desert area. Where is that at?

[The_Hamster]

Probably by Osoyoos, SE British Columbia.

[Runningdog]

Hamster, you're very close...I had just come through Osoyoos, and was sitting just south of Keremeos/Cawston at the junction of the highway to Nighthawk.

This desert area is the northern-most (obviously) extent of the Great Basin Desert, and is more correctly described as "shrub-steppe".......temps to more than 100F (38C), and only 10-12" precip per year. Rattlers, sage grouse, lizards, sage brush, rabbit brush....well, you get the idea.

Irrigation results in mondo-great grape-growing for wineries, although total area production (here and extending about 100 miles north) about the same as a single big winery in California. Now you know too much useless info.....

Nice, I like it. I didn't have time to check the game the last couple of days, I was out riding, to and from Bemidji, MN where I was playing my viola in their symphony orchestra. It fits well on my bike, I was the only orchestra member on a motorcycle....

[wouter]

"any other relatively untrampled natural area"

very hard to find in belgium...

[Runningdog]

Key word is "relatively"......anyplace that a photo can be taken that does not have a building or road in it, and has vegetation....
