This is indeed the Devil's Throne. Seemed like a working bee had been through there recently, it was pretty well pruned.

Good to know for next time. That track was pretty overgrown when I was there, so I went up to Thark Ridge.
Next one:
- Walking back down Mt Donaldson, overlooking the Pieman River - Arthur Pieman Conservation Area via Corinna

It was like a giant wet sponge, the whole state was awash at the time. We got caught in a downpour just before the photo.
Looks like from the short walk to Pine Lake. I have similar photos in some very foul, freezing weather. The wind/chill was unbelievable.
- Not a game photo

Pine Lake indeed, when it was very full. Note grass under water.

Not the Tyndalls, about 90km from there as the crow flies.
Mainly conglomerate I believe, more evident at higher elevations I'm descending from.

The angle matches Pelion East, but the rock type seems Cathedral - so maybe Bishop Peak?

Looks like Pelion West, so viewed from somewhere between Twin Spires and Cathedral in the gap between Pelion East and Ossa?

I was trying to find the exact pool, and it is indeed halfway between Twin Spires & Cathedral

I had a quick look on google maps and thought I could spot something similar looking, and it was the only remaining place to really make sense! I feel like I stole this one a little. I'll wait for confirmation from Last I guess.
