Correct Tyreless. Looking towards Grose Head North and Grose Head South. We also walked down the track to the Grose about a km from the lookout, but I haven't done Kariwoga Ridge.

Thanks John. I’ve been to both Grose Head South (on track) and Grose Head North (off track).

Where in NSW is this heart-in-your-mouth ledge?

That’s the place. It’s quite a drop off this ledge, and no real options to go around it. All yours, Keith.

Indeed - last time I was crossing it, we heard a significant rockfall below us.

What NSW track am I on ?

You may notice some similarities with the heads visible in the most recent photo.

The killer clue is that I wouldn't be lyin' if I said this track is the greatest of all time.

Not sure I follow all of the clue, but maybe Lions Head Pass?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Lions Head is the one on the left.
There are 2 other clues there......

Stretching my grey matter I'll take a stab with Kills Head, and possibly you are on Sublime Point Trail?

Yes, Kills Head is visible in both this shot & the Pt Repulse shot above.
However, v. close to the Sublime Pt firetrail.... in fact the greatest of all time track almost crosses it.

I finally got it (I hope), too literal for my frozen brain today - Goat Track.
I've only done the Kedumba Valley Rd and the traverse over Solitary from that side.
Other tracks/passes are on the bucket list.

Quite a distance from the Nattai, but people do walk there from this area.

That's a neatly comprehensive response. Fortunately, it is also right.
