Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[tas-man]

Yes, that's it! A magnificent vantage point to view both inside and beyond the rainforest canopy. Your turn

(Photo not in competition) - climbing up the ladders to the fig tree lookout, Rainforest Canopy walk, Lamington National Park Qld.

This is a pic of my mate Paul (hand in scroggin bag) and me, at about the mid-point of a three day walk in NSW. We have just climbed up a killer of a ridge and are resting at the top. What is the name of the mountain we are on? (there is an historic connection with the region of Tas-man’s photo)

Summit of Mount Yellow Dog

Mt Yellow Dog (in what may have been known as the Peter O'Reilly Range)

[Pteropus]

[tom_brennan]

Must have logged in just at the right time! Good clues.
Easyish one, since I'm off to Kakadu tomorrow - from NSW

Unfortunate that, but I figure you need to have a fair idea of where something is before you can find it on my site. Otherwise you're looking through 30000 photos!

[wobbly]

I think its Coroboree Rock

[eggs]

And you would be right - just off the road through the East MacDonnell Ranges

[wobbly]

Yes its looked very familiar. Meanwhile back in Vctoria where am I standing

[north-north-west]

Whatisname's Landing at the Prom? Aaaaaaarrrrrgggghhh!!!! I'll go get my maps to check the name . . .

[north-north-west]

Miller's Landing. Looking over Corner Inlet.

[wobbly]

NNW- You're in the right area but its not Millers Landing.

[eggs]

Duck Point?

[wobbly]

No Duck Point is a long way off.

[Liamy77]

chinaman long beach? - track goes towards enterance point?

[wobbly]

Chinaman's long beach might (only might) be visible in the distance but i'm only 30-40 mins from asphalt.

[eggs]

Asphalt would run through the Park Entrance point - is there a track to the coast from there?
Otherwise you are heading up towards Yanakie / Duck Point again - which is "a long way off".

[wobbly]

yes there is asphalt at the park entrance and there are indeed tracks to the coast from there and they aren't long ones either

[Liamy77]

then i'll go the other way and say Barry Beach-ish?... cover our bets a bit..
nah ill stab at port franklin instead but only guessing ...

[wobbly]

Its a Long shot but I could Telegraph my location by saying these is something White to my left

[eggs]

Are you actually on Long Island?
[not sure about Telegraph and White - but I don't have a detailed map of the area.]

Edit - the White is probably the extensive dunes along the beach just down from the park boundary.
2nd Edit - you are actually looking at Long Island from the beach! - I did not pick up on that at the first drill down

[wobbly]

Yay Eggs- I'm actually on the edge of the sand dunes you mention. The spot is between White Swamp and Telegraph swamp and the muddy thing I'm overlooking is Long Island. The dunes even had a few small perched lakes when I was there in Easter.

Over to you

[eggs]

That's kind - I will need to get a good map of the Prom - though the heavy demand and booking system puts me off a bit.

A photo of a photo - where am I in Victoria?

Sunrise view north from Mt William, the Grampians
