Bloomin Mole placed this "log path" in 2009. It is near, but not in, Kahruvel Forest.

Here's a clue - Kahruvel Forest is also called Rodeo Forest. The log path goes up and down.

Well Blooming Moles oscillating logs are here

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Davenport/33/162/21

I remember first time I noticed them moving it was a big surprise.. I see they date back to 2009, I wonder about their history.

I had not heard of Kahruvel forest before. Interesting to poke around there in Rodeo, Stinson, Cowell and also there is Kahruvel Harbor over on the Bay of Space Pigs side of Davenport (that I was aware of - the Culprit whale rider there is a fun diversion).

Some of Kahruvel's history is here: https://kahruvel.com/Trust.html

Thank you Rufferta - that was a good one!

I noticed this broken bridge earlier...

... but where am I?

(nb remember whilst this is in the mainland forum section - locations can be anywhere connected to mainland including private estates & Bellisseria)

Maybe another view will help:

I remember when this track first became active and people barreled their trains off the end at top speed falling into the water below.  😄

I don't remember the region name, though, so we'll just leave that to the next intrepid SL explorer.

I'm not in-world at the moment but I'm sure that's Clayton Ravine in Bellisseria - one of the many movie/tv show easter eggs in Belli, this one being a Back To The Future III reference.

 

Sorry slow to confirm... Yes you are right Clayton Ravine !

This one shouldn't be too hard, it's still one of the best horse riding trails in SL, so no clues yet :P

I believe it's the Route 6 Bridleway, specifically in Perizoma :D

I am sure you are right, Yorkie... Do you have a picture and location to challenge us with?

"The Man"' created by oldjohn Linden.  The oldest object in-world Second Life, created July 19, 2002. Where am I?

I know The Man is often cited to be the oldest object in SecondLife, but...

the Beach Ball in our libraries made by Philip Linden has a creation date of April 29 2002, so whenever you rezz that it will have an earlier creation date.

Also in Welsh there is a banana made by Crazy Canuck in a giant tin can, with a creation date of June 04, 2002

I think this will be easy but here goes:

I think I know where you are and the eye looking at you in the background... but I will leave it for others to find for now :)

I think that must be why they added a sign that says the oldest "continuously rezzed" object in SecondLife.

Since too many people seem  to "get it in one", I will start with the most difficult clue pic.

 

image.thumb.png.bd3ce1f7898c8ea0e437d24e555d3857.png

That's an easy one. You're on the hill overlooking the Atomic Boring Machine in Nautilus Island : http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Nautilus - Mysehi/85/101/51

 

@Yorkie Bardeen  Your location hasn't been guessed yet.. need another clue ;)

I am sat on "Jeska Linden" owned seating around a stage. Built in 2005, the land is currently owned by maintenance.

The background gives more clues on the location, I have put draw distance up when taking the photo so you can see them.

Took me a very long time, but I finally found it.

That's the Brampton Linden Stage at: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Brampton/115/163/26, owned by "Jeska Linden"

There glowing thing in the background is the "Residents' Choice Awards,  Winner's Circle 2009"

And really far in the back is the Waterhead Welcome Area, which is how I eventually figured this out: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Waterhead/36/76/25
