Yeah, lovely conditions for the walk out. Nice and cool and not actually raining.

Brilliant conditions :)
I'll have one more crack, maybe the Hanson River Valley from somewhere on Artillery Knob.

Now we're starting to home in on the right spot. It is looking across the Hansons River valley, though not from Artillery Knob.

Are you near (but not yet on) The Guardians? Maybe approaching it from the Minotaur or the Gould/Minotaur saddle?
