Editor's note: Tomp, sit this one out, OK?
A piece of tree trunk, a slat or two of wood, what else do you need to build a cupboard? But, where is it?

Fine furniture it's not. But where in the National Park System is it?

Pipe Springs National Monument in Northwest Arizona, i think.
Not Pipe Springs, Peg.
Canyonlands! Cave Spring Hike in the Needles section.
Is it Bryce Canyon?
Canyonlands?
This mystery photo was taken at the Cowboy Camp in Canyonlands National Park. Congratulations to Amy for providing the correct answer - and very quickly, too. Kudos to Catherine for honoring Amy's point. Be sure to check back with Traveler tomorrow for more details about the Cowboy Camp. BTW, I was with Kurt when he took this photo. It turned out way better than the photo I took of the same objects. The lighting is poor in that little cave. That's my story, and sticking to it.
I told you your readers would have it figured out before I even got a chance to see the quiz! [I was helping model cheatgrass in DINO as a function of current & last year's precipitation, attributes of the most recent fire including intensity, and prior conditions (soils, burns by decade since the 1950s, distance to roads, etc.)]
And, you give me too much credit: I'm not even claiming I would have gotten the right answer, even if I checked a couple of guesses on the web:
