14. Winner! San Diego is the answer.

The picture was taken on the Sunrise Highway, 56 miles from downtown San Diego. It's the Laguna Mountain Recreation Area, part of the Cleveland National Forest. The location is only 15 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border.

But, since I am always wrong, it has to be nearer the other side of the country...so the answer must be Los Angeles
