This is probably too hard, so I will help you out a bit. First of all, in the title of the thread there are TWO hints. And.. here's another clue for those who have really no idea where to look for: Someone has pointed me out the fact that the key elements in my puzzles are too small to see... Well, this one is 200x425 METERS BIG!

I had seen the thing you mean, the one that's big, but I tried to find it via Google, and my search words returned nothing that fits your image so far. I saw one thing in your title too, I don't see the other one. Then again, I didn't have time to really think about it, I can't go to F&G every day. You do what you want with your puzzle of course, but if I could suggest one thing, it's don't give clues or solutions too fast, some people come here every two or three days, even once a week. You're new here so I understand your eargerness , but not everyone can be here every day, unfortunately. Also there's the matter of time difference. Sorry, I cannot stay longer this evening. Thanks for the clues anyway.

Thanks for the clues anyway. Ok, I will wait more time for clues and solution next time. Anyway, I have found many Google Search queries (two or three words) that can get you to the place, so it is possible. But you need to understand what you are looking for, a bit of thinking needs to be involved. The thread title helps you understand it.

The problem here is that maybe it's hard to understand what exactly that is, assuming you have found it. So if you have found it, here is a another hint from where you can start using the correct search queries... That thing, was made in 1939 by students of the State Forestry Corps as a tribute for their leader at that time, and in 2004 it was renovated with the regional funds because it's a very important artistic heritage and natural monument.

That took some doing, even with the new clues. I now understand the older ones.

Solution and title explaination: What we are seeing in the picture, is a random place BUT in the background we see Monte Giano (we are in Italy). This mountain has a huge "DVX" written with trees on it, you can see it from my picture. The ancient romans used the letter V instead of the U, and in Fascism period this was reintroduced by Benito Mussolini, and his "nickname", which was DUX (that means to lead in latin, see title) was often written as DVX (" solvtion" in the title). These searches on Google Image, all give you the correct result: "dux trees" - 5th result "dux written trees" - 1st result "dux mountain" - 1st result "dux italy" - 2nd result There is also an article that shows up on Google called Totalitarian Trees -> www.strangehistory.net/2010/06/22/totalitarian-trees/ and it talks about this. After you get in the area, just look at the passage under the railroad and find it in the valley in front of the mountain.
