Based purely on the visual environment, the scene is a perfect match for the Appalachian region of the Eastern United States. The mix of deciduous trees, the lushness of the foliage, and the foggy/misty background are hallmarks of areas like the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This is a plausible alternative if the photographer was traveling, as the landscape is a strong fit.

The photographer Adrian Murray has previously lived in or had connections to Minnesota. The landscape, with its dense deciduous trees and unpaved paths, is also consistent with the numerous parks and natural areas in the Minneapolis area, such as Theodore Wirth Park. While his current base is Kentucky, a photo from a previous location is possible, making this a viable but less likely candidate.
