National Park Mystery Spot 23: Cue Ball's Habitat

By Bob Janiskee - April 13th, 2011

If the moon were a cue ball, what would its natural habitat be? Photo by Nosleeper via Flickr.

The mystery spot is a particular place in a National Park System unit. Can you identify it using just these clues?

Saddam built quite a few, and they were very expensive too.

The cue ball's natural habitat is green and smooth and flat.

A peregrine too young to fly dwells in a place that's way up high.

That Cat's in the Cradle guy was way too young to die.

Bonus clue, no extra charge: The best known place in a park that was the first of its kind.

Be sure to check back with Traveler tomorrow for the answer and an explanation of the clues. We'll embargo the answer until then so everybody can have a crack at the mystery spot puzzler.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say Devil's Tower.

That is a pretty wild guess...but not the correct one;-)
