WHERE AM I? Well lighted and high up
This man is changing a lightbulb in one of the country’s best-loved national parks. (Bring on the ranger jokes.) This fancy lamp hangs in a signature park hotel, well above sea level, somewhere west of the Mississippi and east of the Ginza (in Tokyo). But which hotel is it, in which park? (Hints: The park was founded in 1890. The hotel opened in 1927 and was used as a Navy hospital during World War II.)
Ahwahnee Hotel, Yosemite National Park, Calif.
Many Glacier Hotel, Glacier National Park, Mont.
El Tovar Hotel, Grand Canyon National Park, Ariz.
Volcano House, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii
Correct. Ahwahnee is the right answer. Photo taken in 2007. Here’s more on Yosemite history.
