Oh yea, this is also a simple one. This is the Teslin Bridge over Teslin Lake. It is the largest spanned bridge on the Alcan Highway, in the native tongue of the Thingit Indians, "Teslin" means "Long Narrow Water". The lake itself has eleven species of fish with the Lake Trout being most popular for the sport fisherman. Chum Salmon and King Salmon from the Yukon River also pass through this lake on their journey to the make out beds.

As for the picture that you have posted on "Iditiskies", due to the formation of the cliffs and rock structures, I would need to take a rock and soil sample to analyze the exact location, however based on my knowledge and exploration of this area, these are the "Bookcliffs" which run from Utah into Colorado and almost to the Rocky Mountain Range. I use to own a small ranch at the base of these cliffs and often watched the herds of wild horse that inhabit this area. Several small, hand dug coal mines also dot the face of these cliffs the further east that you go. By the way, the pilot of the aircraft is an Air Force Captain and he is currently on a vectoring course for landing at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

How can it be the Lonesome Duck Ranch when you are 1,100 miles south of the of the Williamson River? Although, the Lonesome Duck Ranch on Tallon Road has a river running through it stocked with "brown trout", the other Lonesome Duck Ranch is in Chiloquin, Oregon on the banks of the Williamson River, world renown for it's Rainbow and Steelhead Trout Fishing.

Correct again, however Iditiskies is correct only if you answered Masada. The aircraft has Isreali
Air Force markings.

The aircraft does have Israeli markings, however, that is an Israeli that was training with the U.S.A.F. and those are the book cliffs in Grand Junction.
