That's a distinctive mountain there on the right. If I knew where it was I am sure I would recognize it...

Well, an important church would be a cathedral, generally speaking. There is a Cathedral Peak in Yosemite, but I've never seen it look like this. It's pointier, for one.
Is there another Cathedral Peak?

Wikipedia says it's in the Elk Mountains. Is that it? If so, is that Cathedral Lake? There is a Cathedral Lake in the area...

If swimswithtrout were to see this he’d know it in a second, with a picture 10000 times better than mine. It’s in a wilderness area. Something Somthin’ Wilderness. With the Something being the slang term for a police ossifier. Burp… (The burp has nothing to do with clues. I’ve just had a couple umm seltzer waters, yeah yeah)

With the Something being the slang term for a police ossifier. Popo Agie Wilderness. Cathedral Lake, with Upper Cathedral Lake within the cirque in the background slightly south of east from Cathedral Peak ( topo map). And this time I have a photo to post.

Travis, good work. I’m gonna give you the win on this. Even though it’s not the right lake. The lake is the bigger one in that group and further down. You can try and guess it but post that pic whenever you’re ready.

The lake is the bigger one in that group and further down. Probably Middle Lake just below Cathedral Lake. I suppose it could be Smith Lake even further below that, but doesn't seem right.

Name the stream, the goat, and the kid. Ignore the goat in the background. It would like a little privacy, if you don't mind. You must provide two answers to win.

Spearfishing creek. The goat in the foreground is Kelly, and the kid’s name is Joe-Bob.
