Finally! I got the (Mt) Puzzle(r) clue earlier but had to guess which canonised mt south of Fingal.
OK this one's a little unusual. Where am I?

I remember Johnw posting with some foul weather on the NE coast recently, so I'll guess Binalong Bay?

You're closer still but need to be more specific. I'll offer a slightly cryptic clue - Not described as a beach, and Madonna played the role of this foreign patriot.

Yes Norts, Peron Dunes is correct. Maybe ILUVSWTAS can post one as he was next closest.

Can't have you waiting around too long for an answer SW so I'll jump in.
This is taken on the road that runs to the base of King William I.
From left to right -KWI, Miligans Peak & Mt Pitt.
Not very nice weather by the looks of it :(

I think you will find the answer to this one will be found here.
Not King Wil, but Mt Field area.

Course we could be talking about something different in that other topic - just checked the exif data and they are taken 2 months apart so perhaps King Wil it is...

I don't recognize the lake, but the cliffy rocks behind it suggests perhaps somewhere near Mt Murchison.

The only one I can find on the map that looks like that shape is Lonely Tarns, near Lightning Ridge on the Mt Anne circuit.
If that's wrong, for a level playing field, I met Stu on Mt Eliza, he and a mate were doing Mt Anne on a day trip when we went up there in late February 2008. Actually I think it must have been early March when I met you, we were on the way out.

Yeh I dont think i'd post a pic in the comp on the same day as I post one in the gallery from the same walk......
KW it certainly was, and it was a nice day, just pished down on us from the logbook back!! I mean really really pished down.....
amanda and I were both trying to get changed inside the car to avoid getting clean clothes wet...

This exif checking buisness seems a bit like cheating to me..... are you really that desperate to get it right Adam?? :lol:

No, I'm just pretty clueless with many of them, but I want to play... So I play the only way I can when I have no idea where the photo is.

Should have got that one, I've actually been there, great spot - especially really early in the am. One of first bushwalks in Tassie.
This might be a bit obscure, but what the hey!
What's the name of this tree?
