In addition, some apparently truncated names:

  • “Three sisters and horses in Mo” (36.950646, -110.084580)
  • “Yei bi Chei and Totem Pole, Mo” (36.936652, -110.061754)

(I assume “Mo” is “Monument Valley” but cut off)

I looked a bit further and found this cluster of wayspots that are similar to ones in the first list, except these have French (?) names:

  • “Souvenir des western” (37.007214, -110.234756)
  • “paysage de film” (37.006254, -110.232868)
  • “Monument Valley” (37.009270, -110.233727)
  • “dernier rayon de soleil sur Mo” (37.009955, -110.237160)
  • “Monument Valley au couché de s” (37.011463, -110.234928)
  • “La route de John Wayne” (37.010641, -110.240421)
  • “Piton de roche rouge à Monumen” (37.010556, -110.242778)
  • “des Indiens?” (37.015438, -110.233898)
  • “persistance de végétation a Mo” (37.016946, -110.250378)

There’s also “SED” (36.970861, -110.091183) … not sure what this one could be.

There might be more (I just stopped searching after a while), but… does anyone know anything about this?

Hey @1504azure ,

These are some of the first Wayspots added to enhance playability.

Thanks,

See Imported Wayspots Guide

These all sound like typical Panoramio imports.

Thank you for the helpful guide!

I suppose I should have guessed that these were imports, but them being marked as “Community Contributed” really confused me :sweat_smile:

They are?? That would definitely lead one away from the idea that they were imports :sweat_smile:
