What do you think this is and where? If you're stumped I'll toss in some hints. Good luck and have fun!

I hadn't approved the comment before Mike's but it looks like Steve's the winner! Well guessed and here's a link via Google Maps: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=47.018718,-122.583368&spn=0.002136,0.005203&t=k&om=1
Pretty incredible looking landscape. Thanks for playing!
