Where in the World

[KevinJS]

You would be heading in the right direction, but with a long way to go.

I'm guessing somewhere near Snake River since that's where Tooga Lake is close to.

That's close enough. The Tooga Cutacross is a winter road the connects the Peggo Road to the Spruce/Tooga Roads. Very handy if you know it's there because it cuts off a huge corner.

Sorry if that one was a bit vague.

Back to the Admiral.

The Admiral is flying CAP tonight so the challenge is open to all iPF members.

Where is this?
What is the name of the building featured and the body of water it's on?
Bonus points if you can name an infamous "made" famous event, that occurred here.
Here being the location not the building.

Dracula's castle (Castalul Bran in Romanian), Arges River?

 

[J. A.]

Chillon castle in Switzerland, "on the shore of lake Geneve".

I had a link, but deleted it.

 

[AdmiralAdama]

Not Dracula's castle and not Romania.

Here's another view.

I think I answered your challenge. See below your last post.

 

[AdmiralAdama]

No was thinking of something more contemporary. "Funky Claude" recently passed away, January of this year.
He was a major player when the gambling house "burned down with an awful sound."



Challenge moves to Europe.

On top of which mountain do you find this observatory?

The larger observatory in your photo is the Canada-France-Hawaii-Telescope on Muana Kea, Hawaii.

You're right. I think that wasn't hard to find, was it?

Where would you find this bridge and what is its name?

It's Kinzua Bridge/Viaduct in Pennsylvania. It spanned the Kinzua Creek in McKean County. In 2003 it was destroyed by a tornado and now looks like this:

If I'm right, I can't post another challenge yet. So someone else may do so.
