Oh so close and IMO close enough. I'm actually beside the Organ Pipes Track a short way along from its junction with the ZigZag Track. Over to you ILUVSWTAS.

P.S. The page turns are tricky. I was sitting on the last page hitting refresh and not seeing the response which was on the new page!

Ah Robl, good guess as I posted a VERY similar pic quite some time ago in the game (see attached pic) but no this is not Wylds nor is it from anywhere in the Florentine Valley

Not Florentine eh?

It does not look familiar to me (although I could kick myself when I find out the answer) so I'm guessing it's in the south of the state. It looks like the foreground is a forestry coupe. Therefore I'm leaning towards it being one of the peaks overlooking the Huon/Weld/Picton valleys.

Hmmm... Showing my lack of knowledge of that area... I've only been past the Hartz Mts turn-off once. That was en route to to/from Farmhouse Creek. One of these days I'll get a job in that half of the island and rip into the zillion walks down there I haven't done.

Haha give me a few years and we'll swap houses for a summer???

Anyway, your too far south..... I KNOW you've been in this area if at least not on this track or on the Mtn in view.

Alrighty then, I think this is from your mission the other day to check out Mt Esperance(how did ya go?)
So it is either that or Mt Snowy.
I'll say Mt Esperance from Forestry road below?

No, Tt was too far south in the Picton valley and your guessing from FURTHER South?? :roll:

It went well, found a good launch spot under 3km's from the peak! Stay tuned for an assault on that peak!!

Not Bowes, If you read the previous posts it should narrow it down quite a bit... As I said it was in one of the valleys Tt mentioned, and the Picton was too far south....

It's not Nevada peak from a funny angle (like partway up Weld) is it? Random guess...
