Default Do you recognize this location?

http://www.santarosaskiandsports.com/ski.html

Using the link provided, there's a photo of people skiing through some
trees. Does anyone recognize the specific location or even the geographic
location based on the type of trees?

I don't know if it helps, but the link takes you to a northern california
ski and board store.

I can't tell for sure, but the near tree looks like a hemlock, based on
the shape of the branches and needles and where they're growing...and
the rest all looks like white birch. That combo is found in the
northeastern US, not sure where else.

Thanks Mary,

It's a northern california store, but even though I'm no tree expert, I was
suspecting an eastern US location.

The trees look like birch (maybe aspen/poplar) and a conifer. Another clue:
by the fashions and the lack of snowboards in the picture, I'm guessing it
is several years old.

The power of observation. Noted: the absence of snowboards. Fashion? I
wouldn't know. I don't tend to notice what other people are wearing. The
absence of pastels makes me think it's not the '80's.

Northern Michigan, too.
