GAME: Where am I?

[L_Cham_67]

Not the northeast either, but I am looking east in this image.

[north-north-west]

Lanes?

[L_Cham_67]

Not Lanes either.
I'm on a track marked on maps.

[Last]

Dundas?

[L_Cham_67]

Dundas?

That's the place, looking over towards Tyndall. Pretty sure I was just below the summit for this picture.

Thanks L_Cham, Next

Mt Norfolk. Looking about SE.

It looks like somewhere in the south-west. I think I can see a clearing over the hill in the centre, maybe where power lines go. Apart from that I only vaguely think I recognise anything. Let's try looking northish from Snowy North.

Wrong end of the state

[north-north-west]

Trying to narrow it down. Norfolk Range?

[Last]

yes and close enough. It's Mt Norfolk

[north-north-west]

OK, that's generous.
Next, where is this hot and sweaty creature:

[Tortoise]

Spires?

[north-north-west]

Close, but not close enough.

[Tortoise]

Ok, so it's high, and it's rocky, so...Innes?

[north-north-west]

While Mr Hot-and-bothered did get out Innes High Rocky, I wasn't there to take a photo of him. This was later.

[Tortoise]

Not Pokana??

[north-north-west]

I could have endless fun with that, given how you've worded it, but it's too late for wordplay - yes, Pokana. And 18 months later, I'm still stuck on the same number of Abels, while he is catching up.

But has he climbed Giles and the multiple knobs in the Flinders Ranges?

[Tortoise]

I could have endless fun with that, given how you've worded it, but it's too late for wordplay - yes, Pokana.

Thanks for having mercy. Pokana is my Nemesis. An 18 hour day that involved pulling the pin about 1.5km from the summit, when it finally looked like easy walking. There were a few things against us. Hope I can have another shot at it one day. Unfinished business and all that.

And 18 months later, I'm still stuck on the same number of Abels, while he is catching up.

Bushfires, Covid - what else could go wrong? Maybe you should knock off the easy one.

Next - where is this delightful woodland?

Woodland on Mt Scott

Yes, I do have to get organised with the easy one.

Scott? I remember wandering through something like (with added fog) looking for a summit marker.

[Tortoise]

Scott's the one. One of my favourites, short, easy and accessible though it is.

[north-north-west]

I must go back when it isn't shrouded in cloud. It was a good walk, with some beautiful forest.

I'm feeling a bit watery, so how about a nice fall?

[L_Cham_67]

Westmoreland falls?

Marriotts?

Westmoreland falls?

In the interests of pedantry I will remind you that officially the spelling is "Westmorland", but otherwise you are correct. Not a place to visit on a sunny winter morning if you want to do some serious photography.

[L_Cham_67]

In the interests of pedantry I will remind you that officially the spelling is "Westmorland", but otherwise you are correct.

And I always prided myself on correct nomenclature and spelling...anyway.
Next one.

In fairness, I made the same mistake until I saw the sign at the carpark. And even then I double-checked on ListMap. So, just passing on the shame.

ps: Victoria?

[L_Cham_67]

Yes this is Mt Victoria

[Tortoise]

Why didn't I say Victoria? I thought it looked like Victoria! I claim cabin fever.

[north-north-west]

Fever? Get yourself tested, Torty. CoVID is still a possibility.
