What a broody looking Mt Ossa! Excellent photo. I would say SbS has detoured from the Mt Ossa track and gone up on to Mt Doris to get this photo.

Looks alot like Cape Boullanger looking north past IIe Du Nord?

Looks like I just got beaten to it.
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.

Yay. Frenchy beat Bap by 3 minutes but Bap got the fancy name. Even though I'm impressed by Bap's knowledge of 'nomenclature française', I think Frenchy is near enough.

yeah you did well, i was hoping it would be abit more challenging, next time i will have to make it abit more indescript, something like this one. so i might as well start guessing, rock scree: dolerite, pandani: "altitude", your looking north east i think, ummm. you were on quamby a while ago so how about that

Thats close enough. Its on the track between Lake Skinner and Snowy South, just at the top of the ridge. A great daywalk if you find the time to do it. The views of Weld are great, and if the weather is nice you can see right out to the far west.

I didn't get as far as Ooze, I got beautiful days to walk in and out, miserable in between.

This one should be pretty easy.
