Bingo! Looking SE-ish from Nevada near where the track breaks out of the scrub

Thanks, Thornbill - and everyone else for narrowing it down so nicely. Next one:

looks a bit like the southern reserve

I thiiiiiink I have an almost identical shot, albeit slightly earlier in the evening and with added smoke, taken shortly before being whisked away from Eldon Peak.

was that the time you got fire bombed?

by **Tortoise** » Tue 25 May, 2021 9:16 pm

Nah, she spreads out her dramas. This one was the bushfires. I think the fire bombing was on Edith, wasn't it, nnw?

by **north-north-west** » Wed 26 May, 2021 8:56 am

The end to the second visit to Eldon wasn't exactly a drama, it was just *&%$#! annoying. There was absolutely no need for it, although the ride was kind of fun.
Yes, fire-bombing was Edith. Still haven't been back. They may have given me some sort of complex ...

Where was I battling a gale that BoM hadn't warned me about last Friday?

I always seem to get the same deal at Skinner. Forecast OK but blowing hard down from Snowy S

by **north-north-west** » Wed 26 May, 2021 9:55 am

Yeah, it was extremely frustrating, especially getting soaked trying to cross Falls Rivulet.
Not from falling in, just from the massive blast of spray one gust picked up. Finally gave up on Snowy Sth, got changed into camp thermals, and walked back out.

Of all my trips there I can remember once when it wasn't windy!
Anyone else can go

Here's one

Precipitous Bluff from Lake Oenone on the Bathurst Harbor!

by **eggs** » Wed 26 May, 2021 2:27 pm

He forgot to say - name the highest point in view...

by **Last** » Wed 26 May, 2021 5:25 pm

correct icefest, your turn

by **icefest** » Wed 26 May, 2021 5:36 pm

Crud.
I thought I'd sneakily avoid this...

Here's another view, back on the 22nd of June 2012.

Scratches head

. Have I missed something? I'm looking at a photo of Cradle/Dove Lake?

Just a bit of silliness. We've come a long way from the first post in this thread in terms of more obscure, also wonderful places.

Ah, thanks Tortoise, went over my head :oops:

. Too true

by **Tortoise** » Wed 26 May, 2021 6:40 pm

Hmm. Scott Kilvert Hut or Lake Rodway - which shall I choose?

I don't remember. Eggs probably does though.

You'd better post the next one before he chimes in!

by **Tortoise** » Wed 26 May, 2021 6:52 pm

Okey doke! How's about one of my favourite trees?

by **north-north-west** » Wed 26 May, 2021 7:40 pm

Southern end of Pine Forest Moor?

Yepperr. RIght near the turn-off to the Forth Valley lookout.

by **north-north-west** » Wed 26 May, 2021 8:39 pm

One of the most photographed trees on the island.
We may as well stick with trees. Where is this beauty?

by **Tortoise** » Wed 26 May, 2021 9:39 pm

Looks familiar, but...
To narrow it down - is it on the Central Plateau?

by **icefest** » Wed 26 May, 2021 10:05 pm

mount field?

by **eggs** » Wed 26 May, 2021 10:24 pm

Just to revisit the jovial - the highest point to be seen is not Cradle Mt.
Its actually Smithies Peak.
Normal programming resumes.

But wait - there's more..
