Map Geeks: Let's play "Geo Guesser"

Bored today? Play "Geoguessr"
Randomly you are given a Google Street Maps view and you have to try to pick out on the map where you are.
Different categories like "USA", "World" "Famous Places", etc. Plenty of specialized maps areas, too.
Enjoy.

I chose the USA quiz and it put me on some highway somewhere. What am I supposed to do? What map? Is it cheating to move around?

Your supposed to move around and look for landmarks and stuff

You'll see something like this.
Yes, I have moved around to help me figure it out. Then you click (you need to zoom in first) on that map on the right to your thought to be location. Then click "make guess"

Would be crazy if it randomly put me on my own street

It dropped me in at a dirt road in the desert with no buildings or signs. GREAT GAME

So you could simply read a sign?

So when I half-heartedly made a guess, it asks me to join. Nah.

If you get one. I've been dropped onto a dirt road with tall pines all around.
But, I could tell by the type of the pine and a distant mountain range that I was out west somewhere. Some randomly picked places are easier than others, even if you aren't familiar with the location.

You don't have to join, it would just make you wait 10 seconds for your answer. I didn't join.

That is pretty fun. I got nearly 1100 points on my first round guess. I guessed somewhere outside of Seattle but it was actually somewhere outside of San Francisco.
Gonna finish up here in a bit.
thanks for finding me something new to kill time with.
ETA: 14,945 points on my USA map 5 round game with absolutely no cheating. 2 of the 5 were way off. Closest I got was 47 miles. I like it.

They dropped me on basin bridge at Butte La Rose. With welcome center sign in immediate view .
I actually pinned it within 110 yards. 4999/5000 pts for that one
