Where on Google Earth #225

Having identified the location of the spectacular alluvial fan tucked into Iran’s Zagros Mountains to win Where on Google Earth #224, it’s now my turn to host this roving geo-nerdy contest.

For those that haven’t played before, here’s a quick overview of the rules. First one to correctly identify the latitude and longitude of the center of the image AND say something about what makes this area geologically interesting…wins. The prize is getting to pick the next WoGE location and hosting it on your blog or picking a geoblogger to host it for you. If you’ve won WoGE in the past, you have to wait one hour before submitting your answer for each of your previous wins (the Schott Rule). If you don’t remember how many times you’ve won, you can look at Ron Schott’s kmz file.
